What is the difference between the lytic cycle and lysogenic cycle

Lytic and lysogenic cycle are two methods by which the virus live in the host cell.

The virus cell invades the host cell and starts replicating inside it as virus needs to invade host cell to survive. They cannot survive independently in the outer environment without host cell.

The lysis of host cell takes place in the lytic cycle not in lysogenic cycle.

in the lytic cycle the viruses replicate constantly which results in the eventual lysis, or death, of the host cell to release the new viruses while in the lysogenic cycle the virus replicates only with the regular cellar mechanism for reproduction
