Definition
1 bacteriophage lands on bacteria
2 inserts viral DNA into cell DNA
3 cell = warehouse for reproduction of bacteriophages
4 cell breaks open and viruses infect neighboring cells |
|

Term
|
Definition
1 virus DNA becomes a prophage and remains inactive in host cell
2 host cell divides and copies virus DNA
3 radiation/chemicals trigger prophage
4 completes lytic cycle and spreads virus |

Definition
form of sexual reproduction
bacteria sends a tube to another(ooohh)
DNA passes through tube(how romantic)
donor dies (mm sexy)
But hey, the DNA is blended now, and as the recipient divides, the offspring are non-identical. VARIATION at it's finest. |
