Oscillatoria
Oscillating through water (movement)
Hormongia: Fragments that break off for asexual reproduction.

22
Q

Prokaryotic Cell Division

A

Binary Fission

23
Q

Natural Transformation

A

Dead DNA picked up by living cell and put into genome

24
Q

Artificial Transformation

A

In the lab

ex) bioluminescent fish.

25
Genetic Recombination/ Conjugation
through Horizontal Gene transfer: DNA from one bacterium is transferred into another via pilus or conjugation tube. Plasmids (small circular pieces of DNA) may be transferred. Ex. Fertility Factor in E. Coli F+ to F- = 2 F+
26
Transduction
Virus invaded bacteria replicate dna package both dnas transfer to another bacteria
27
Phage Infection
Phage dna injected Phage dna replicated, host degenerated phage particles with dna packages and break out of cell
28
Transducing Phage Infection
Transducing Phage Injects DNA | DNA incorporated by homologous recombination.
