Answer 1

Process	Match	Explaination
Replication	DNA--->2DNA	Replication is a process of DNA duplication during S phase of cell cycle where one parental dsDNA molecule give rise to two daughter dsDNA molecules .
Gene Expression Transcription Translation	DNA----transcription ---->mRNA--------translation--->Protein	Gene expression is the process in which info coded in gene is used to form functional protein . Gene expression involves transcription of info from DNA to mRNA followed by translation process in which mRNA code for functional proteins. Transcription is the process of formation of complementary mRNA using DNA as template Translation is the process of formation of polypeptide chain by using triplet codon of mRNA as guide.
Recombination	Transduction Transformation Conjugation	Genetic recombination in prokaryotes ie, bacteria occur through conjugation, transformation and transduction. Transformation is the process of genetic recombination in which one kind of bacteria converts into another kind by uptake of exogenous material. Conjugation is another process of genetic recombination in bacteria in which one bacteria transfer genetic material to another through direct contact. Transduction is process of genetic recombination in which foreign DNA introduced into bacterial host by bacteriophage ie, virus.
