Genetic Recombination

Recombination is crucial to this process because it allows genes to be reassorted into diverse combinations. Genetic recombination is the process of combining genetic components from two different origins into a single unit. In prokaryotes, genetic recombination takes place by the unilateral transfer of deoxyribonucleic acid. It includes transduction, transformation, and conjugation. The genetic exchange occurring between homologous deoxyribonucleic acid sequences (DNA) from two different sources is termed general recombination. For this to happen, an identical sequence of the two recombining molecules is required. The process of genetic exchange which occurs in eukaryotes during sexual reproduction such as meiosis is an example of this type of genetic recombination.

Microbial Genetics

Genes are the functional units of heredity. They transfer characteristic information from parents to the offspring.

How can i explain my answers in depth in microbology for example this question: Assume that there are horizontal gene transfers between two completely different bacterial species. In one case it is a plasmid that is transferred via conjugation, in the other case it is a part of the bacterial chromosome that is transferred via transformation. In which of the two cases is it most likely that the transferred DNA will remain and be able to function in the recipient cells? Explain the biological background to your answer . How do I break down the question so I answer it fully

A) A bacterium that has an F plasmid is able to do which of the following? Group of answer choices resist antibiotics survive in very harsh environments such as hypersaline lakes grow a cell wall form conjugation tubes and pass on their DNA to other bacteria reproduce sexually B) horizontal gene transfer refers to bacteria's ability to Group of answer choices make peptidoglycan for their cell walls transfer DNA to offspring, or "daughter" cells transfer DNA only when on horizontal surfaces, such as a table top transfer pieces of DNA to other cells in the population engage in mutualisms with certain species

QUICK I WILL RATE NO EXPLANATION NEEDE D Which of the following is not correct regarding genetic material transfer? When virulence plasmids are transferred to the bacteria, they become virulent The resistance plasmids also carry transposons and IS elements that have resistance genes to antibiotics IS elements and transposons can cause mutations in genes Insertion sequences and transposons are fixed genetic elements of chromosomal origin
In which of the four processes shown can material from a bacterial genome be transferred from one cell to another? Which are forms of horizontal transmission? Place the answer(s) in the cell highlighting that process. Partial genome transfer by DNA uptake Transformation Answer Bank material from a bacterial genome horizontal gene transfer Conjugation Plasmids Conjugation Genome Plasmid transfer during conjugation Partial genome transfer during conjugation Virus Transduction Transfer as part of viral genome
Which of the following are ways bacteria have of dealing with viral infection? RNA interference Raising body temperature Monoclonal antibodies Restriction enzymes CRISPR-Cas system
Classify each statement as true of generalized transduction or specialized transduction. Generalized transduction Specialized transduction Answer Bank Genes transfer from random sites in the bacterial chromosome. This utilizes lysogenic phages. Genes that transfer depend on the prophage insertion site. This utilizes lytic phages. Phage inserts itself at a specific site in the bacterial chromosome. This requires accidental packaging of bacterial DNA in viral capsids.
