3 Bacteria can acquire free DNA from the environment through

3. Bacteria can acquire free DNA from the environment through: a.) conjugation b.) transduction c.) natural transformation d.) all of the above

1. Specialized transduction can transfer: a.) any DNA from host genome b.) only phage-specific DNA sequences c.) genes flanked by insertion ements d.) only genes near the site of integration

2. Genome annotation: a.) can be performed manually b.) can help assign potential functions to new genes c.) marks open reading frames d.) all of the above

Can you please help? Thank you.

Solution

Answer:- option D all of the above

Explanation:- Bacteria undergoes genetic recombination by three process transduction, conjugation, transformation.

1:-Option 2, only phage specific genes are transfered.
