Consider the following statement: Bacteria can exchange genetic material through conjugation without the need for any protein structures or control mechanisms. Is this statement True or False

Explanation:

Bacteria exchange genetic material  through conjugation with the help of proteins and various other factors.

It is the temporary union of two bacteria for the exchange of genetic material.

Steps  :

An F+ donor (donor bacteria) cell contains its chromosomal DNA and an F plasmid.

It uses its pilus to attach to the recipient cell, and then these two cells are pulled together.

Then A channel forms between the cytoplasms of the two cells, through which conjugation occurs.

one characteristic that is shared by all is a soft body. many

of these invertebrate animals also have an outer shell to protect their

body. oysters, clams, snails, and mussels are all mollusks. so are octopuses, squids, and slugs. mollusks live on land and in freshwater.
