#1
Front (Question)

Obligate Dependence

Back (Answer)

Viruses rely entirely on host cell metabolism to replicate their nucleic acids and synthesize proteins.

#2
Front (Question)

Lytic Cycle

Back (Answer)

In the lytic cycle, the virus infects the host, replicates rapidly, assembles virions, and lyses the cell.

#3
Front (Question)

Lysogenic Cycle (HL)

Back (Answer)

In the lysogenic cycle, viral DNA integrates into host DNA as a prophage, replicating with the host genome.

#4
Front (Question)

Induction (HL)

Back (Answer)

Environmental triggers can cause a prophage to exit the host genome and enter the lytic cycle.

#5
Front (Question)

Animal Virus Entry

Back (Answer)

Animal viruses enter host cells via membrane fusion or endocytosis rather than injection.
