- explain bacterial Conjugation in biology?Complete the following statement about conjugation. Bacterial confirmation is the equivalent of sexual reproduction in eukaryotes in that it necessitates cell to cell contact. The donor cell just contain a 1. Blank which is distinct from the larger bacterial chromosome. The 2. Blank carry genes in the 3. Blank which regular the conjugation processDescribe the main features of conjugation and its outcomes.
- Escherichia coli O157:H7 can cause serious food-borne illness. This strain of E. coli has acquired the ability to create a toxin normally produced in the bacterial species Shigella. Which of the following would not explain this ability found in E. coli?a) reproductionb) recombinationc) conjugationd) transductione) transformationIn a rapidly changing environment, which bacterial population would likely be more successful: one that has individuals capable of conjugation or one that does not? Explain.Which of the following statements about conjugation is false? After a F- cell has conjugated with an F+ cell, both cells would be F+. Both Hfr and F+ bacteria have the ability to produce a sex pilus. In F+ × F- conjugation, none of the bacterial chromosome is transferred; only the F factor is. A Hfr strain usually transfers the entire bacterial chromosome to the recipient cell. F' × F- conjugation can produce a partially diploid bacterial cell.
- Which of the following is a structure that is not involved in conjugation in bacteria? A. sex pili B. mating bridge C. conjugative pili D. flagellumExplain the mechanism used to transfer genes via conjugation.The process by which one bacterial cell transfers DNA to another is: a. fission b. gametic fusion c. conjugation d. lysis e. fusion
