In generalized transduction, viruses carry random DNA sequences from one cell to another.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Generalized transduction is a type of bacterial transduction where bacteriophages carry random fragments of DNA from the donor bacteria to the recipient bacteria. This results in the transfer of genes that are not necessarily linked to each other, and does not require any specific sequence or location on the DNA. Therefore, the statement "In generalized transduction, viruses carry random DNA sequences from one cell to another" is true.
