Vibrio cholerae is a bacterium that lives in water and is normally harmless to humans. If infected by a certain type of virus it
acquires the genes to produce the cholera toxin and now can cause disease in humans. This acquisition of genes is an example ofa. transfectionb. transductionc. conjugationd. binary fission
This is a process acquired by bacteria like Vibrio cholerae to infect cells using genetic recombination process which occurs in bacteria when it incorporates its gene into the genome of a bacteriophage to gain access and infect the host cell after infection initiation by the bacteriophage.
