Conjugation and transformation are both kinds of horizontal gene transfer that allow a cell to receive and recombine external DNA. Conjugation involves physical contact between two bacteria using a pilus, through which a copy of plasmid DNA is transferred from the donor (F+) cell to the recipient (F-) cell. Transformation, on the other hand, is simple uptake of naked DNA into a recipient cell from the environment. The DNA usually comes from the leftovers of a dead cell.

Conjugation and transformation are both kinds of horizontal gene tranfer that allow the cell to receive and recombine external DNA. Conjugation as we know requires a physical contact between the two bacteria. Transformation requires a simple take of the naked DNA into the recipient cell from the environment.

A cell that consists of a 65% salt concentration is placed in a solution with a 27% salt concentration. What will happen to this
zzz [600]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - the cell will get water and expand.

Explanation:

If a cell with a higher salt concentration is placed ins a low salt concentration solution then the water will move through the cell membrane into the cell and the cell will swell or expand.

Water always moves from a low solute concentration to a high concentration area, therefore, if the cell has more salt concentration than outside the cell water move inside the cell which leads to an increase in the water concentration inside the cell and expands its size.

Describe how fossils provide evidence of evolution
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Fossils provide solid evidence that organisms from the past are not the same as those found today; fossils show a progression of evolution. Fossils, along with the comparative anatomy of present-day organisms, constitute the morphological, or anatomical, record. By comparing the anatomies of both modern and extinct species, paleontologists can infer the lineages of those species. This approach is most successful for organisms that had hard body parts, such as shells, bones or teeth. The resulting fossil record tells the story of the past and shows the evolution of form over millions of years.
