Explanation:FOLLOWING are the steps of lytic cycle.. 1) Attachment: In this step, the bacteriophage, attaches itself by it's tail to the cell wall of bacterium (plural-bacteria). 2) Digestion: In this step, the bacteriophage contains an enzyme called lysozyme, which digest the cell wall of bacterium (plural- bacteria). Thus an opening is FORMED in the bacterial cell wall. 3) Injection: The bacteriophage contracts and injects it's DNA through the opening, inside the host (bacterium), while the protein coat and tail remain outside. 4) Taking Control: Inside bacterial cell, the bacteriophage DNA takes over the biosynthetic MACHINERY of the host (bacterium), to synthesize it's own DNA and protein molecule. 5) Multiplication: The bacteriophage multiplies and increases it's number,hence form a lot of daughter bacteriophages , the daughter bacteriophages exert pressure on the cell wall of bacterium. 6) Rupturing: Finally, the bacterial cell ruptures ( lysis occurs) due to all that pressure caused by daughter bacteriophages and release the daughter bacteriophages out, which are now READY to attack a new bacteria and start their lytic cycle, all over again.
