Genetic change in bacteria can be brought about by conjugation
transduction.
vertical gene transfer.
All of the answers are correct.

Expert Solution

All are correct

Vertical gene transfer is the transfer of genes from parents to offsprings.

Horizontal gene transfer is the transfer of genes between two bacterial cells which are not parent and progenies to each other. It is of three types -

Transformation

Transduction

Conjugation

Respond to the items below. Explain the role of horizontal gene transfer (conjugation, transformation, and transduction) in contributing to the spread of drug resistant microbes. Describe the four common mechanisms of antimicrobial drug resistance used by bacteria and give an example of each. Will developing new antibiotics stop the problem of drug resistant microbes? How high of a priority is this for the scientific research community?
