Don't worry, it should be. Your epidermis is the top part of your skin, and your skin is your body's largest and fastest-growing organ. Skin is your body's coat. It protects you. It helps you stay warm when it's cold, and cool when it's hot. Your skin keeps all your insides in, from your heart and lungs to your blood and muscles.
In the other population of cells, the injected phage chromosome turns OFF all the phage genes except one. The single phage chromosome called the prophage now becomes a part of the host chromosome. The bacterium carrying the dormant phage chromosome is called the lysogen.
A bacteriophage attaches itself to a susceptible bacterium and infects the host cell. Following infection, the bacteriophage hijacks the bacterium's cellular machinery to prevent it from producing bacterial components and instead forces the cell to produce viral components.Eventually, new bacteriophages assemble and burst out of the bacterium in a process called lysis.ollowing infection, the bacteriophage hijacks the bacterium's cellular machinery to prevent it from producing bacterial components and instead forces the cell to produce viral components.
