Answer:

Transduction

Explanation:

Among the three types of gene transfer in bacteria, transduction does not require physical contact between the two bacteria cell. Viruses that infect bacteria accidentally move pieces of chromosomal DNA from one bacterium to another. These viruses that infects bacteria are called bacteriophages.

Simply put, transduction is a process of genetic recombination in bacteria which involves the incorporation of the genes of a host cell (bacterium) into the genome of a viral cell (bacteriophage) and then conveyed to another host cell when the bacteriophage infects it. The process of transduction is of two types; generalized and specific depending on whether any gene or specific gene is transduced respectively.

The aim of these viruses when they infect bacteria cell is to harness the ability of bacteria to replicate, transcribe and translate their genetic material and use it to procreate into many virons or complete their viral particle.

Answer:

C. transcribed, mRNA

Explanation:

DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is a molecule that holds genetic information needed to make other molecules in living organisms. However, before this genetic information can be harnessed, it needs to be expressed via two processes called transcription and translation.

Transcription is the first of the two processes that take place during genetic expression. It involves the synthesis of mRNA molecule from a DNA template. In other words, the DNA must first be TRANSCRIBED into mRNA.

What is a good property of an indicator?
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

Acid base indicators are weak and acids and bases, which are used to signify the end point of neutralization reaction. The type of indicator used for a neutralization reaction depends on the strength of the acid and the base, that are involved in the reaction. A good acid base indicator must have a good pH range and it must be able to produce specific and identifiable color in specific acid base medium.

or

Two good properties of an indicator are as follows-

1) It should be specific- It means that the changes, which are measured by the indicator should be expressed in precise terms so that appropriate assessment could be made.

2) It should be time bound- This means that the measurable changes should arrive withing a particular time limit.

Example of indicator- Litmus is an acid base indicator that turns acidic solutions red and basic solutions into blue color.
