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.
The lambda phage, also called Enterobacteria phage Î» and colphage Î», is a type of temperate bacteriophage or bacterial virus that infects the Escherichia coli (E. coli) species of bacteria. The virus may be housed in the genome of its host via lysogeny.n order to infect a host cell, the bacteriophage attaches itself to the bacteriaâs cell wall, specifically on a receptor found on the bacteriaâs surface. Once it becomes tightly bound to the cell, the bacterial virus injects its genetic material (its nucleic acid) into the host cell.
