1. integration, replication 2. dormancy, integration 3. prokaryotes, eukaryotes 4. endocytosis, injection 5. cell type, chromosome type Title: Re: Temperate phage Post by: bio_man on Dec 4, 2010 Temperate phages can integrate their genomes into their host bacterium's chromosome, together becoming a lysogen as the phage genome becomes a prophage. A temperate phage is also able to undergo a productive, typically lytic life cycle, where the prophage is expressed, replicates the phage genome, and produces phage progeny, which then leave the bacterium.
