Answer:

The correct answer will be option- transformation.

Explanation:

The transformation is the process of the horizontal transfer of gene in which the competent cells takes the naked DNA from the environment.

This process was reported in the experiments of Griffith on Streptococcus pneumonia in 1928. The bacteria should be competent to take up the free extracellular DNA form the environment. This ability of the bacteria is used in biotechnology and molecular biology in cloning procedures and many others.

Thus, option- transformation is the correct answer.

Answer:

The correct answer is E) eutely

Explanation:

Nematodes are organisms with bilateral symmetry, although their organs are coiled, sometimes one of the limbs is lost and many of sedentary life tend to radial symmetry. One of the most striking characteristics of these animals is that their growth is not produced by an increase in the number of cells that compose them, but by an increase in the size of the already existing cells; in fact, in most adult tissues the number of cells is constant, a phenomenon known as eutelia.

Eutelia is the condition of an organism composed of a constant number of cells or syncytial nuclei in all adult individuals of a species, such as nematodes, it means that body growth is not carried out by increasing the number of cells but by the growth of existing cells.
