Question 7 Please match the term to the correct definition Column A bacteriophage capsid lysogenic infection lytic infection prophage retrovirus Column B a a type of infection in which a virus immediately starts replicating in the host cell b a virus that infects bacteria the type of infection in which a virus does not immediately start replicating itself but inserts a piece of DNA ino the host cell's genome which becomes activated at a later date the protein coat that surrounds a virus a piece of virus DNA that becomes a part of a bacterium's genome- until activated to produce new bacteriophages virus thatupon infection of a host makes a DNA of its RNA and inserts that piece of DNA into the genome

Answer 1

Here are the terms from Column A matched to their correct definitions in Column B:

1. bacteriophage - b a virus that infects bacteria
2. capsid - the protein coat that surrounds a virus
3. lysogenic infection - d the type of infection in which a virus does not immediately start replicating itself but inserts a piece of DNA into the host cell's genome which becomes activated at a later date
4. lytic infection - a a type of infection in which a virus immediately starts replicating in the host cell
5. prophage - e a piece of virus DNA that becomes a part of a bacterium's genome until activated to produce new bacteriophages
6. retrovirus - f virus that upon infection of a host makes a DNA copy of its RNA and inserts that piece of DNA into the genome

So, the pairs are:

• bacteriophage - b
• capsid - (not explicitly a match in your original list; typically this is not matched with any definition within your provided options)
• lysogenic infection - d
• lytic infection - a
• prophage - e
• retrovirus - f
