It adds to genetic variability. Swapping DNA helps the new organisms to be genetically different from the parents. If there is a biological disaster that threatens a population of Paramecia some of them may survive since they are not all genetically alike.

In paramecia and bacteria what is a reproductive process that allows recombination of genetic information?
conjugation
What does bacteria do in the process of conjugation?
Bacteria exchange genetic material during the process of conjugation to ensure the rise of another offspring which is genetically different.
What is the difference between the conjugation that occurs between paramecia and the conjugation that occurs between bacteria?
this Q was awnsered by someone else already and this is what it put and im 90% sure its right- In paaramecia, two individuals of different mating types come together and form a cytoplasmic bridge between them. This is followed by a complex set of divisions and i that ultimately results in an exchange in genetic material between the conjugants analogous to the sexual reproduction seen in multicellular organisms. In bacteria, a structure called the sex pilus "joins" the two organisms and allows for an exchange of genetic information.
What is the process that a bacterium uses to take in genetic information from another cell?
conjugation
In bacteria genes may be transferred through a pilus which acts like a bridge in a process called?
Conjugation - its when genetic material is transferred between two bacterial cells that are temporarily joined. The transfer is also one-way.
In paramecia and bacteria what is a reproductive process that allows recombination of genetic information?
conjugation
How do paramecia reproduce sexually?
conjugation
What is a type reproduction found in paramecia?
conjugation...
Tool used for studying morphological changes that take place in paramecia during the process of conjugation?
compound light microscope
What is the process in which two Paramecia come together after meiosis to exchange parts of their genetic material called?
Conjugation. Good luck to anyone in Mr. Goode's class.
How does a paramecia get rid of waste?
the paramecia gets rid of waste by a process called exocytsis
What is importance of bacterial conjugation?
Bacterial conjugation is sexual reproduction, when the two cells interchange nuclei and separate then divide several times. If you observe some ciliates such as paramecia under the microscope you might notice the process of conjugation by the Transverse fission of the cell.
Which process results in genetic recombination separate from process wherein the population size of paramecium increases?
The answer is conjugation.
Prokaryotes can transfer pieces of genetic material in a process called?
Conjugation
What does bacteria do in the process of conjugation?
Bacteria exchange genetic material during the process of conjugation to ensure the rise of another offspring which is genetically different.
What process does bacterial cell reproduce?
conjugation
