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).

horrorfan [7]

The answer is ‘Life insurance could be denied’. Publishing DNA results could make public genetic predisposition to diseases such as Huntington's disease, cystic fibrosis, and disorders such as Alzheimer's that are caused by environmental factors influence on the respective genetic mutations. This would cause the life and health insurers to evade such individuals since they are considered a liability. This would deny the individuals the right to health insurance.
