transduction
The process of adding foreign DNA to a bacterial cell is called Bacterial Transformation. It is a technique used very frequently in molecular Biology labs.Ê
The process is called transduction, where viral DNA is transferred into a bacterial cell, integrated into the bacterial chromosome, and expressed by the bacterial cell.
The process is called transformation. In transformation, bacteria take up free DNA from their environment. The DNA can be integrated into the bacterial cell's genome and can lead to genetic diversity within the bacterial population.
The division of a bacterial cell occurs through a process called binary fission, where the cell replicates its genetic material and splits into two identical daughter cells. This process allows for rapid growth and reproduction of bacterial populations.
Louis Pasteur hypothesized that a bacterial colony arises from a single bacterial cell through a process called binary fission, where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells. This theory laid the foundation for modern understanding of bacterial growth and reproduction.

The process by which a bacterial cell takes up naked DNA from its environment is called transformation. During transformation, the bacterial cell incorporates the foreign DNA into its own genome, acquiring new genetic traits in the process. This ability to take up exogenous DNA is a key mechanism for horizontal gene transfer among bacterial populations.
The chemical is called lysozyme. It is an enzyme that targets the peptidoglycan layer in bacterial cell walls, causing it to hydrolyze and break down. This process weakens the cell wall, leading to bacterial cell lysis and death.
called a transformed bacterial cell. The plasmid DNA can confer specific traits to the bacterial cell, such as antibiotic resistance, ability to produce certain proteins or enzymes, or other desired characteristics. This process is commonly used in genetic engineering and biotechnology research.
Binary fission. The bacterial cell replicates its DNA. Then the plasma membrane grows, separating the two daughter-chromosomes, and the membrane folds inward, splitting the cell in a manner that is superficially like the cytokinesis of an animal cell.
