Answer:

E) horizontal gene transfer

Explanation:

Horizontal gene transfer can also be referred to as lateral gene transfer. It is the transmission of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) between different genomes.

Horizontal gene transfer has been shown to occur between different species, such as between prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.

Horizontal gene transfer is made possible by the existence of genetic elements, such as plasmids, transposons, and bacteriophages (bacteria that infects viruses).
