Question

Which stage of the lytic cycle kills the host cell? A-the injection of the virus’s genetic material B-the replication of the virus inside the host cell C-the release of the replicated viruses D-the attachment of the virus to the host cell

Answer 1

C. The release of the replicated viruses

Step-by-step explanation:

The 5th stage of the cycle, where the virus is released, is the one that kills the host cell.

This is the "Lysis" stage, where the phages are released from the cell and the cell is destroyed from the viruses.
