    The correct answer will be option-Lytic cycle

    Explanation:

    The lytic cycle is one of the two mechanisms of reproduction performed by bacterial viruses called Bacteriophage.

    During the lytic cycle, the virus reproduces by using the DNA replication machinery of the host cell and then producing enzymes which degrades the cell wall structure of the bacteria.

    The enzyme acts and degrades the cell wall as a result of which the bacteria dies and the produces viral particles are released into the environment. Since the bacterial cells are then lysed by the virus therefore the cycle is known as the lytic cycle.

    Thus, the option-Lytic cycle is the correct answer.
