Answer:

C. Pili

Explanation:

Conjugation:

  • Conjugation is the transfer of genetic material between two bacteria. It is referred to as horizontal gene transfer as it occurs through the formation of a horizontal connection or a pilus.
  • Conjugation occurs when the donor bacterium, containing the fertility factor (F factor; it is the gene required for pilus formation) initiates pilus formation.
  • This tube-like structure then joins the two bacteria and transfer of genetic material occurs.
  • Plasmids containing antibiotic resistance genes are also transferred in this manner.

Which of the following is continually passed from one enzyme to the next during the Electron Transport Chain?
AVprozaik [17]

The correct answer is electrons.  

Electron transport chain refers to an array of complexes, which mediates electrons from electron donors to electron acceptors through redox reactions, and combines the transfer of electrons with the transfer of protons through a membrane.  

This produces an electrochemical proton gradient, which instigates the production of ATP. The ultimate electron acceptor in the electron transport chain is oxygen in aerobic respiration and sulfate in anaerobic respiration.
