Reptile [31]
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.

tatiyna

Answer:

The correct answer is option b, that is, a modification in the target of DNA gyrase, is an illustration of acquired resistance.

Explanation:

The activity of DNA gyrase gets inhibit by fluoroquinolones. The enzyme that combines with the DNA and prevents its supercoiling at the time of replication is termed as DNA gyrase. It is a heterotetramer, which is formed of two subunits of GyrA and two subunits of GyrB. Due to the mutation in gene gyrA, the development of resistance takes place in N. gonorrhea against fluoroquinolones.  

Post mutation, gyrA exhibits lesser binding capacity with the fluoroquinolones, and thus, the development of resistance takes place within the bacteria against the fluoroquinolones. The phenomenon of the development of resistance taking place in any microbe against the specific antimicrobial agent for whom it was vulnerable before is termed as acquired resistance, thus, the given case is an illustration of acquired resistance.
