◉ In a hypothetical situation, the genes for sex pilus construction and for
tetracycline resistance are located together on the same plasmid within a
, particular bacterium. If this bacterium performs conjugation involving a
copy of this plasmid, then the result would be
Answer: the rapid spread of tetracycline resistance to other bacteria in
that habitat
◉ Not present in all bacteria, this cell covering enables cells that possess
it to resist the immune defenses of host organisms:
Answer: capsule
◉ In bacteria, this type of asexual reproduction is called:
Answer: binary fission

Answer: C
◉ GFP is a gene found in some jelly fish that causes them to flouresce
green. If specially treated E. Coli bacteria are exposed to the pGLO
plasmid containing the GFP gene, some of the E. Coli will incorporate
the pGLO plasmid into their own genome and will fluoresce under U.V.
light. This is an example of:
Answer: Transformation
◉ All termites eat wood, yet cannot digest it. Termites rely upon a
regime of symbiotic gut protists and prokaryote bacteria to digest the
wood. Without them the host will die, without the termite, they die. This
is an example of:
