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).

Astronomy question i need help cause i never to space and i have to imagine if i was and I'll also mark Brainiest for best answe
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

Looking at the sky during night is always an amazing scene. It takes our breath away, every time when we see the night sky with countless stars twinkling, full moon and planets. I always wished I reach those far planets travelling in space. The only way I can fulfill my dream is to become an astronaut. Astronaut is a person who is trained to travel in a spaceship to go to outer space. If I were an astronaut, I wish my first mission will be to the moon. However, I will have to undergo a very strict training to survive in space We all have seen the training videos of astronauts in DISCOVERY channel where they even undergo underwater training. Life in space will be different with zero gravity and so we will experience zero weight and will float freely. Wow!!!! that seems to be an exciting thing. But how we will eat and drink?

Describe the Cell Cycle [Interphase, G1 phase, S phase, G2 phase]<br> describe them all please :)
Svet_ta [14]

<em>G1, S and G2 phases are all cumulatively referred to as interphase involving the growth of a cell and the replication of its DNA. Initially in G1 phase, the cell grows physically and increases the volume of both protein and organelles. In S phase, the cell copies its DNA to produce two sister chromatids and replicates its nucleosomes. Finally, G2 phase involves further cell growth and organisation of cellular contents. The S phase of a cell cycle occurs during interphase, before mitosis or meiosis, and is responsible for the synthesis or replication of DNA. In this way, the genetic material of a cell is doubled before it enters mitosis or meiosis, allowing there to be enough DNA to be split into daughter cells. The S phase only begins when the cell has passed the G1 checkpoint and has grown enough to contain double the DNA. S phase is halted by a protein called p16 until this happens.</em>
