True or False: Viroids contain a capsid but lack an envelope.

False Recall: They do not have a capsid or outer envelope

When two different strains of a segmented virus enter the same cell, reassortment of the gene segments can occur, resulting in ____.

antigenic shift

Through the process of phage ____, a prophage is excised and enters the lytic cycle.

induction

A viral infection in which the viral genome is intergraded into an animal host cell chromosome, yet can reactivate to cause a productive infection, is categorized as a(n) ____ infectious.

latent

Some pathogenic bacteria produce toxins that are encoded on prophage DNA, and these are examples of ____ conversion.

lysogenic

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies are caused by ____.

prions

To maintain the lysogenic state, a ____ protein prevents expression of the gene required for excision.

repressor

Reassortment of gene segments that encode viral surface proteins that are recognized by the immune system can result in a loss of the immune system's ability to recognized and respond to the virus. This phenomenon is called antigenic ____.

shift

A ____ phage can either cause lytic infection or can incorporate DNA into the host genome as a prophage.

-adhere to the bottom surface (substrate) -grown as a monolayer

True or False: All non-cellular infectious agents are viruses.

False

True or False: Lysogens are more susceptible to reinfection by the same type of phage.

False

True or False: Most bacteria engulf bacteriophages as a part of the phage replication strategy.

False

True or False: When a bacterial culture is infected with a temperate phage, all particles of the phage will lysogenic their host.

False

____ is a change in the phenotye of a lysogen as a consequence of the specific prophage it carries.

Lysogenic Conversion

One of the system of a respiratory virus infectious is coughing and sneezing. This allows. -viral particles to be shed from the host and transmitted to a new host - even more viral particles from environment to access the host respiratory tract

-viral particles to be shed from the host and transmitted to a new host

Viruses that infect bacteria are called ____.

-phages -bacteriophages

The physical rupture of a cell is termed ____.

Lysis

____ transduction is the result of excision errors made as temperate phages transition from a lysogenic to a lytic cycle.

Specialized
