Answer:
Genetic material
Explanation:
Conjugation is one of the ways by which bacteria exchange their genetic material (horizontal gene transfer). Two bacterial cells must physically connect in order to perform the conjugation. The linking occurs through a pilus.
Pilus is an appendage on the surface of bacteria cell and it is also called fimbria. Pilus is filamentous, tubular and composed of oligomeric proteins-pilin.
Donor cell contain pilus that will attach to the recipient bacterial cell and induce the transfer.
