Answer:

Answer is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

A lysogeny is also known as the the lysogenic conversion, which can be described as the ability of the phages to integrate their DNAs into the hosts chromosomes as the process of means of surviving.

These make the phages to exist as prophages.

Remember that, symbiotic relationship is an interaction existing between two organisms, which might be either beneficial to one or both, or harmful to one of them.
