For the following please select the correct answer and explain why that answer is correct.
1)The uptake of free DNA from the environment ________, while transfer of DNA with cell-to-cell contact would most likely result in ________.
a) transformation / conjugation
b)conjugation / transformation
c) transformation / transduction
2) A deleterious mutation in recA results in:
a) a decrease in homologous recombination.
b) an increase in homologous recombination.
c) no change in either general or specific recombination.
Homework Answers
1. The uptake of free DNA from the environment - transformation, while transfer of DNA with cell to cell contact would most likely result in conjugation
Hence option A is correct
2. A deleterious mutation in recA results in:
a decrease in homologous recombination
Hence option B is correct

Please classify each statement as describing transformation, conjugation, or transduction in bacteria. Bacteria can acquire plasmids from outside the cell. A bacterium that contains an F plasmid connects to a recipient bacterium that lacks an F plasmid with an appendage called a pilus, through which the plasmid is transferred. Some bacterial DNA fragments may be included when new phage particles are assembled. A cell can be treated to make it competent to take up DNA from its environment. When a...

Place the following events in the process of transduction in the correct order. Not all labels are used. Transducing particle Bacterial cell lyses, releasing phages. Foreign bacterial DNA integrates into the host genome by homologous recombination. Bacterial DNA A transducing particle attaches to a specific receptor on a host cell. Replaced host DNA- Bacteria multiply with new genetic material. Bacterial cell forms endospore and goes dormant. Bacterial DNA is injected into a cell.
