This should be a fairly easy question but I want to make sure.
Viral DNA is injected into the cytoplasm of the host cell for animal viruses as well as bacteriophages.
[I am guessing for the animal viruses, the host cell cytoplasm then moves the nucleic acid injected to the host cell nucleus]
Virus DNA integrates into the host cell DNA in the nucleus (if an animal virus) and in the cytoplasm (if a bacteriophage).
Correct?
