Kobotan [32]4 years ago

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.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

C. Four Haploid Sperm Cells

Explanation:

Meiosis is a cell division measure that creates four haploid cells (gametes) from a solitary diploid germline cell. In males, meiosis is essential for spermatogenesis, the cycle to produce sperm. Sperm are the haploid cells that are produced in meiosis.  

Meiosis is a profoundly moderated cell division measure in eukaryotes that produces 4 cells (gametes) from a solitary cell (mother). Nonetheless, Nondisjunction in the male of Drosophila causes much of the time sperm with an addition or loss of chromosomes.
