At the molecular level, the "choice" between lytic and lysogenic pathways is determined by the:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The regulation of the choice between lytic and lysogenic pathways is a complex process that involves both positive and negative regulatory effects of a small number of different bacteriophage proteins produced soon after infection. These regulatory proteins act on the expression of genes that encode for the lytic or lysogenic pathway, and their relative balance determines the outcome of the infection. Therefore, choice E is the best answer as it reflects the complexity and balance of the regulatory processes involved in the decision between the lytic and lysogenic pathways.
