How are the lytic and lysogenic cycles similar and different in terms of process and infection?

Lytic cycle: involve that there is rupture( lysis) of the host cell and release many copies of virus. Lysogenic cycle:  involve the insertion of the nucleic acid of a bacteriophage into host genome, known as prophage.

Explanation:

There are many  similarities and differences between lysogenic and lytic cycles that;

1. Lysogenic cycle of bacteriophage :

i)  in lysogenic cycle:  bacteriophage insert its DNA with that of a host, known as prophage and it replicates with host.

2. Lytic cycle of bacteriophage:

i) lytic cycle is that it results in many copies of the virus very quickly and the cell is ruptured and many copies of virus are released.

4. Similarity is that in both cycles bacteriophase inter into the host and use their machinery.

Hmmm i'm not sure about this one
