Further analyses revealed that a region downstream of the seaweed-digesting genes in bacteroides plebeius contained sequences homologous to conserved relaxase/mobilization proteins. these data provide additional evidence that the genes were acquired by:

Conjugation

Explanation:

Conjugation is the method of moving genetic material from one bacterium to another via direct contact.

One bacterium is the source of the genetic material during conjugation, while the other acts as the receiver.

The bacterium of the recipient contains a sequence of DNA called the element of fertility or F-factor.

the correct answer is: d. the saltine and pretzel are made of flour, yeast, and baking soda, and salt. the pecan contains no flour but it does contain fats. the pecan is a nut that can be consumed as a healthy snack. first of all, pecans are a source of fat (monounsaturated fat), but they provide less fat than some other nuts. pecans are a rich source of dietary fiber, manganese magnesium, phosphorus, thiamin, vitamin e…
