Conjugation is the direct transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another.
Bacteria can exchange genetic information through three different mechanisms; conjugation, transduction, and transformation. Bacterial conjugation involves the transfer of a plasmid from one bacterium to the other, through cell-to-cell contact. Bacterial transduction is performed through bacteriophages. Bacterial transformation refers to the process of moving genetic elements to various positions of the genome.
Answer: Decrease the amount of animal waste that reaches the water supply.
A fecal coliform is an anaerobic, rod shaped and gram-negative bacteria. It originates in the intestines of warm blooded organisms. It is released in the fecal matter of humans and animals. This bacterial strain is a chief contaminant of water body. The waterborne diseases associated in humans because of this bacterial strain includes infection of ears, bacterial and viral gastroenteritis, typhoid fever and hepatitis A. The bacterial strain is added to water body by discharge of human sewage, pet animal feces runoff and agricultural wastes including animal fecal based manure runoff.
Therefore, by decreasing the amount of animal waste that reaches the water supply is an appropriate action that Florida farm could take to reduce fecal caliform in nearby water supplies.
The vinegar removed only the shell of the egg because it was acidic. But it was unable to mess with the egg, because as it removed the shell of the egg, it was unable to get past the sac, the part that protects the inner egg. It is hard to puncture this sac, unless dropped or punctured by a nail or something hard.
