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.
Answer: Structural chromosomal mutation
Explanation: In translocation, a small piece of chromosome is detached from one chromosome and is attached to another non-homologous chromosome. Translocation can be simple, shift or reciprocal.
Simple translocation involves single break in the chromosome. The broken piece gets attached to the end of the non-homologous chromosome.
In Shift translocation, the broken segment of one chromosome gets inserted interstitially in a non-homologous chromosome.
Segment from one chromosome is exchanged with a segment from another non-homologous chromosome simultaneously in Reciprocal translocation.
