Which of the following is true regarding the phase lambda, a virus which infects bacteria?

  • In the lytic cycle, the bacterial host replicates viral DNA, passing it on to daughter cells during binary fission

  • In the lysogenic cycle, the bacteria-host replicates viral DNA, passing it onto daughter cells during binary fission

  • In the lytic cycle, viral DNA is integrated into the host genome

  • In the lysogenic cycle, the host bacterial cell burst, releasing phases

In 1944, Avery, McCarty and MacLeod isolated substance from heat killed a virulent form of bacteria and added to the non-virulent form of bacteria which changed the non-virulent to virulent from this substance can be destroyed by

  • DNAse

  • Protease

  • Lipase

  • Amylase


A.

DNAse

Avery, MacLeod and McCarty carried out an experiment from which they reported that DNA is a substance that causes bacterial transformation from non-virulent to virulent bacteria, but DNAase acts as a waste management endonucleases responsible for DNA fragmentation.
