Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

All the options listed (conjugation, infection, transduction, and transformation) are mechanisms through which DNA can be transferred into bacteria. Conjugation involves direct cell-to-cell contact for DNA transfer. Infection, in this context, likely refers to bacteriophage infection, which can result in DNA transfer through transduction. Transduction is the process by which bacteriophages transfer DNA from one bacterium to another. Transformation involves the uptake of free DNA by a bacterium from its surroundings.
