What are two possible reasons why a bacteriophage reorganizes its bacterial host to resemble a eukaryotic cell?
The two possible reasons are :
To trick the cells & to produce the next generation of the virus.
As soon as the virus infects the bacterial cell, they damage a lot of the cellular machinery of the cell such as it's DNA & then it seizes the balance cellular machinery. The bacteriophages then reorganizes the complete cell to a well organised machinery, which matches that of the eukaryotic cell which contains several specialized structures, only to produce new viruses.
hope the answer helps.

If 100% of the DNA contents of a transducing bacteriophage were DNA from the host chromosome, what would happen when the bacteriophage infected a new bacterial cell? Group of answer choices The bacteriophage would be converted from a lysogenic phage to a lytic bacteriophage. The new bacterial cell would die. No more bacteriophage would be synthesized, as there is no bacteriophage genome available to direct synthesis. More bacteriophage would be synthesized, resulting in death of the new bacterial cell. The...
why does the capsid remain on the outside of the host cell during a bacteriophage life cycle?
Lytic bacteriophage A) have two lifestyles, they either lyse the bacterial cell they infect or insert their DNA into the host genome and become a prophage B) have one lifestyle, upon infection they express genes to produce more phage and lyse the host cell C) have one lifestyle, upon infection they insert their DNA into the host genome and become a prophage D) have two lifestyles, one in which they lyse the cell immediately after infection and one in which...
Microbiology 260 please help and thank you question #1 1. suppose that a host bacterial cell is infected with a latent bacteriophage. Suppose also that the host cell produces an abnormally HIGH amount of Rec A. Explain HOW or IF and WHY this would affect the bacteriophage’s ability to become lytic? question #2 has two parts. 2. consider what has to occur in order for the process of transcriptiom to begin in bacterial cells. A). Besides polymerase name two other...
why are bacterial genomes not nearly as tightly
compared as eukaryotic chromosomes during both normal growth and

Why are bacterial genomes not nearly as tightly compacted as eukaryotic chromosomes during both normal growth and cell replication?
Would an ATP synthase taken from a bacterial cell work in a eukaryotic cell? Why?
1. Describe the formation and function of bacterial endospores 2. Describe four reasons why eukaryotic reproduction is more complex than prokaryotic reproduction. 3. Contrast meiosis with mitosis, mentioning homologous chromosomes, chromatids, 4. Define virus and virion, and describe the parts of a virion. 5. Identify and describe the portals through which pathogens invade the human body. tetrads and crossing over.
What role does a bacteriophage play in transferring DNA from one bacterial cell to another?
Construct a paragraph or two describing the interrelationship among a bacterial pathogen, the affected host, and potential antimicrobial drugs in the development of an appropriate antimicrobial treatment. Pick a pathogen, suggest tests that should be performed on that pathogen to determine the specific drugs and give reasons why they would be appropriate. Terminology to incorporate: narrow-spectrum, broad-spectrum, MIC, Kirby-Bauer, therapeutic index, selective toxicity, drug mechanism.
