Progeny virions accumulate at exponential rates during
Answer: D
Correct answer: maturation
Maturation is the assembly of the synthesised components into complete particles, so it is during this phase that infectious virus reappears in the cell and accumulates rapidly. Before it lies the eclipse phase, during which the genome and proteins are being made but no infectious particle can be recovered - which is why the yield curve stays flat and then rises steeply.
