C) via a lysogenic cycle
D) by altering its DNA

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Bacteriophages can spread their DNA via a lysogenic cycle, in which the phage DNA is integrated into the host cell's genome and is replicated along with the host DNA without causing the immediate death of the host cell. This allows the phage DNA to be passed on to daughter cells during cell division.
