Question

1. Select all of the TRUE statements. (Select all that apply.)

a. The process of conjugation may introduce new genes into the recipient strain, altering its genotype.

b. The direct movement of DNA between two bacteria of the same generation is called horizontal genetic transfer.

c. In conjugation, the strand of DNA that is transferred from the donor cell to the recipient cell is single stranded.

d. An episome is a segment of bacterial DNA that can exist as a plasmid or be integrated into the bacterial chromosome.

e. A cell with an F factor integrated into the bacterial chromosome is called F+.

f. During transformation, homologous recombination may occur if the sequence of the introduced DNA has no similarity to the host DNA.

f. During transformation, homologous recombination may occur if the sequence of the introduced DNA has no similarity to the host DNA.

a) true, conjugation may alter genotype because it is a methods by which bacterial transmit its material from one species to other

c)is is true most of the time, because it start to make copies

d is true becaue it is the definition of episome

f homologus chromosome may occur if there is no similarity then this will start eplicating on its own and will form homologus chromosomes
