The definition of transformation in bacteria is described by the first statement: transformation is the assimilation of external dna into the bacterial cell. In a more elaborate sense, transformation is described by the altering of the cell as a result of the uptake or intentional incorporation of dna from an external source. It is one of the three processes for horizontal gene transfer. The other two are transduction (infection of a phage), and conjugation (transfer of dna between two bacterial cells that are directly in contact).

1. List the conditions decomposers need to do their work.
Alex
Decomposers need a condition or area filled with rotten or dead creatures and plants, commonly moist, with the exception of some ravens. Decomposers usually need food, air, and a moist environment. The needs are the same as most living things, except the environment. The contents of a composter, should be used as fertilizer or food for decomposers. This is because rot is filled with nutrients, great for plants and decomposers.
