    C. causes cell lysis

    Explanation:

    The slow release of the bacteriophage progeny from a bacterial host cell causes bacterial cell lysis and further kills the host cell which is the bacteria, this results to the liberation of progeny viruses which then infect new bacterial cells.

    Only a type of bacteriophage called the filamentous bacteriophage reproduces without killing the bacterial host cell. The filamentous phages infect majorly gram negative bacteria.
