As most microbes reproduce asexually, "species" are defined by differences in their DNA sequences. when the genome of soil microbe a is analyzed, long stretches of genes from multiple species of other soil microbial species are discovered. This indicates that the microbes present in the soil underwent transformation and transfection. Transformation, shown in the image, is the process of the prokaryotic nucleus taking up the foreign DNA from other microbes present in the environment. Tranfection is like transformation but for the eukaryotic cells.
Functions of cell surface Receptors .
most ligands responsible for cell-cell signaling ( including neurotransmitters, peptide, hormones, and growth factors) bind to receptors on the surface of their target cells.
Answer:
Larger ships transport invasive species in their ballast water, while fouling organisms such as barnacles, seaweeds and mussels can move from one location to another by hitching, a ride on a boat, on items you use in the water and even your clothes
