Hi everyone. Let's look at our next problem. It says which of the following pages remains inside the host for a period of time without licensing and killing it. So let's look through our answer choices here and let's note that choice D. Is all of the above. So there is that possibility that all the answers could be correct choices. Profane ages and profile pages are pages that have actually um permanently integrated their genetic material into the bacterial genome. So the prophet has come in, gotten into the bacterial cell and its gene genetic material has become integrated into the bacteria's genes. So our question is looking for something that remains inside the host for a period of time. But a pro page, its genetic material is now permanently integrated into that bacterial genome. So it's not our answer. Therefore we can also limit choice D since we're not going to have all of the above as our answer. Now let's look down a choice be well, very lint pages as their name indicates, immediately lice and kill their host. So I think a virulent virulent disease. So a brilliant page will not remain inside the host without licensing and killing it immediately. So that's not an answer. So we have a choice. C temperate pages and again that name temperate can give us a clue here, just like opposite with virulent temporary temperate climate. It's something pleasant, something moderate. So temperate page is a page that remains inside its host for a period of time without licensing and killing it. So again our answer there is choice C temperate pages. See you in the next video.
