1. From chapter 6, figure. What has happened to the bacterial DNA in this illustration? What effect can this have on a bacterium? Is this temporary or permanent?

1. From chapter 6, figure. What has happened to the

2. From chapter 9, process figure. Study the series of events in this illustration. What do cell A (step 1) and cell B (step 5) have incommon?

Donor (hoel chromosome Phage DNA Cell A A phage infecis cel A (the donor cell) by normal means Separated piece af host DNA Parts of phage During replicalion and assembly a phage particle incorporatesa segmenl of bacterial DNA by mistake. Cel A then lyses and releases he malure phages, including the genetically altered ane. Cell B The altered phage absorbs to and penelrates another host cell (cel B), injecting the DNA from cell A raiher than viral nucleic acid Lysis DNA from donor Cell B receives this donated ncorporaled into chromosome DNIA, which recombines wilh ils own DNA. Because the vinus is defeclive (biologically inactive as a virus), it is unable to complele a lytic cycle. The transduced oell survives and can use this new genetic malerial.
