What is the advantage of genetic recombination as a mode of reproduction in bacteria?
greater genetic variation. (e2020 answer)
In paramecia and bacteria what is a reproductive process that allows recombination of genetic information?
conjugation
What is the intentional alteration or transfer of genetic material called?
The transfer of genetic information is called conjugation. It involves transfer of genetic information from one bacterial cell to another, and requires physical contact between the two bacteria involved.
Is mutant bacteria and transgenic bacteria same?
Transgenic: This kind of bacteria is formed by transfer of genetic material from another bacteria. The transfer may be natural or by genetic techniques. Mutant: This kind of bacteria is also a modified one at genetic level, but not due to transfer of genetic material from other bacteria or organism, but due to genetic changes in the organism itself. This changes may be due to UV rays or ionising radiations, or other mutantion stimulating agents (mutagens)
What are the 3 sources of genetic recombination?
Genetic recombination refers to the process by which two DNA molecules exchange genetic information. The three types of genetic recombination are crossing over, conservative site-specific recombination and transpositional recombination.
Which process performs genetic recombination?
Genetic Recombination is the exchange of genetic information in order to increase the genetic diversity of the population. Probably only with bacteria.

What is the definition of 'genetics engeeniring'?
genetic engineering involves the transfer of genes from one organism to an unrelated species and this done with the help of bacteria
What process involves transfer of DNA from one bacterium to another and recombination of these DNA molecules of different parental origin?
It is called genetic engineering. Many transgenic plants and animals are being produced by this process.
Is mutant bacteria and transgenic bacteria same?
Transgenic: This kind of bacteria is formed by transfer of genetic material from another bacteria. The transfer may be natural or by genetic techniques. Mutant: This kind of bacteria is also a modified one at genetic level, but not due to transfer of genetic material from other bacteria or organism, but due to genetic changes in the organism itself. This changes may be due to UV rays or ionising radiations, or other mutantion stimulating agents (mutagens)
What allows the bacteria to join together to transfer genes?
pili or pilus is what allows for conjugation between bacteria i.e. genetic transfer.
Which two processes result in variations that commonly influence the evolution of sexual reproducing species?
mutation and genetic recombination.
Who were Lederberg and Tatum?
Joshua Lederberg was a molecularbiologist and geneticst. Tatum was also a geneticst. Both were from the USA. Lederberg and Tatum discovered the genetic recombination in bacteria.
Reproduction involves the transfer of genetic information from?
Reproduction involves the transfer of genetic information from the parent cell to the daughter cells. This is how some traits are transferred through the genes.
What are the 3 sources of genetic recombination?
Genetic recombination refers to the process by which two DNA molecules exchange genetic information. The three types of genetic recombination are crossing over, conservative site-specific recombination and transpositional recombination.
