Microbiology

Step 1: Concept
Certain viruses must penetrate cell walls to infect a host.
Step 2: Meaning
Lysozyme is an enzyme that can break down the peptidoglycan layer of bacterial cell walls.
Step 3: Analysis
Bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) produce lysozymes to digest a hole in the bacterial cell wall during the infection and release phases.
Step 4: Conclusion
Bacteriophages have the capacity to produce lysozymes.
Final Answer:(B)
