For both the lytic and the lysogenic cycle the phage has to attach itself and inject its DNA into the host. Then in the lytic cycle the phages nucleic acid is replicated which makes the phages proteins produce more of themselves.  Then when they are ready the phage particles are released.  Then in the lysogenic cycle the phage's DNA is not replicated or transcribe so that means the DNA has to integrate into the host cell's genome.  Then the host cell can replicate while carrying the integrated phage genome.  But if these cells are exposed to ultraviolet light or to certain types of chemicals phage induction occurs and the DNA that was integrated enters the lytic cycle.
