Answer:

Option A : Bacteria transfer DNA with bacteriophages

Explanation:

The transduction is the process by which foreign DNA is inserted into the cell. The DNA is inserted by viral vector or virus. This process was discovered by Zinder and Lederberg. Bacteria transfer DNA with bacteriophages is called transduction. The bacteriophage is a virus that replicates within the bacterial cell. Thus, Option A is correct.

Bacteria inject DNA into other cells with the help of a tube , this process is called Conjugation. Bacteria change from lysogenic to lytic is called induction.  Bacteria take in DNA from their environment is called transformation. Thus, Option B, C, D are incorrect.

<span>The discoverers of DNA were not James D Watson and Francis Crick. They are the first scientist to formulate an accurate description of the DNA’s (deoxyribonucleic acid) complex , double-helical structure. They discovered that base pairing nucleotides must be; adenine and thymine; and cytosine and guanine. These base pairs are held together by a hydrogen bond, atype of chemical reaction that s easy to break and easy to reform. The statement is “DNA is a double helix made of two strands linked together with hydrogen bonds.”</span>

Whats the defenition of heat ?
Morgarella [4.7K]
Heat in Physics is an energy that is in a process of transfer between a system and its surroundings other than the transfer of matter. In  Thermodynamics,  a science that deals with the study of heat and temperature and their relationship to energy and work, finer details of the process is unpredictable. Heat flows from a hotter to a colder body when there is a physical pathway. This pathway is suitable and can be direct such as radiation and conduction. It can also be indirect as in convective circulation.

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Parasitic

Explanation:

The plants that are described are typical example of parasitic plants. These types of plants have a parasitic relationship with the other plants, at least with the ones that they can use. In order for them to grow, survive, and prosper, these plants need a host plant. They attach to the host plant's steam with their miniature claw like organs, and use them for support to grow upwards, but also to extract nutrients from the host plant. While this leads to to parasitic plant's survival and prospering, the host plant is suffering, and gradually the parasitic plant will suck every nutrient out of the host plant and kill it. Without a host plant, these plants would find it extremely hard to survive, and the chances are very high that they will die because they are not well suited to get nutrient on their own.
