Answer:There are three mechanisms of horizontal gene transfer typically used by bacteria: transformation, transduction, and conjugation. Transformation allows for competent cells to take up naked DNA, released from other cells on their death, into their cytoplasm, where it may recombine with the host genome.

Capsular hydrostatic pressure is the chief force pushing water and solutes out of the blood and across the filtration membrane.
netineya [11]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Capsular hydrostatic pressure (CHP) is a back-pressure that opposes filtration. As the filtrate is forced into the capsular space, it meets 2 forms of resistance: the wall of the capsule and the fluid that has already filled the renal tubule.

This pressure drives fluid out of the capillary (i.e., filtration), and is highest at the arteriolar end of the capillary and lowest at the venular end.

trapecia [35]
The most familiar non-vascular plants that contain simple conducting cells are Mosses. Most non vascular are bryophytes and are small in size, they lack vascular tissues and also lack true leaves, seeds, and flowers. Instead of roots, the have hair-like rhizoids that functions to anchor them to the ground and to absorb water and mineral salts from the soil. They are three types, mosses, hornworts and liverworts.
