Answer:
The correct answer is D) assimilation of external DNA into a cell
Explanation:
A bacteria is called transformed when it consist a genetic material that is not it's own but taken from outside the cell. So transformation of bacterial cell defines the uptake of foreign DNA by bacterial cell from its surrounding.
This transformation in bacteria is necessary because it provides bacteria some new and extra genes that help it to survive in the adverse and changing environment.
Transformation can result in getting the antibiotic-resistant gene to the bacteria which protect the bacteria from antibiotics during infection when antibiotic is used against it.
So the right answer is D) assimilation of external DNA into a cell.
I think biotic but im not sure
Reinforcement and support
parenchyma, in plants, tissue typically composed of living cells that are thin-walled, unspecialized in structure, and therefore adaptable, with differentiation, to various functions. The cells are found in many places throughout plant bodies and, given that they are alive, are actively involved in photosynthesis, secretion, food storage, and other activities of plant life. Parenchyma is one of the three main types of ground, or fundamental, tissue in plants, together with sclerenchyma (dead support tissues with thick walls) and collenchyma (living support tissues with irregular walls).
The process of reproduction among jellyfish when they release the egg and sperm into the sea, then when it is fertilized, it settles down on the sea floor and grows into a polyp is called fertilization. The correct answer would be option C. In the adult or medusa stage of a jellyfish, they reproduce sexually by releasing the egg and sperm into the water forming a planula.
