  1. 1. bacteria with viral genetic material in the lysogenic cycle
  2. 2. cycle: Virus genome incorporating into bacterial DNA and beginning the lytic cycle only when environmental triggers are observed
  3. 3. cycle: Replicating genome of virus constantly to make new virus cells until bacterium bursts and releases new viruses
  4. 5. A protein coat around all viruses that is used to classify viruses.
  5. 6. A misfolded protein that acts as a template to misfold other proteins; cause of some fatal diseases
