Explanation:

• In the lytic cycle, the virus takes over the host cell to produce new viruses and then lyses (destroys) the cell, with no integration of viral DNA into host DNA.
• Apoptosis is programmed cell death, not a viral reproductive cycle.
• "Life Cycle" is a general term and not specific to the integration of viral DNA into host DNA.
• In the lysogenic cycle, the viral DNA (prophage) integrates into the host cell's DNA and replicates along with the host DNA without immediately causing the host cell to lyse.

Answer:

D. Lysogenic cycle
