Viruses are directly involved in which of the following processes in bacteria? a. transformation b. conjugation c. transduction d. binary fission

C. Transduction

Explanation:

Transduction is a process of horizontal gene transfer between the prokaryotic cells in which genes are transferred from one mature, independent organism to another by viruses. For example, a phage infects a bacterial cell and the DNA and proteins of the phage are synthesized in the bacteria. During the assembly of phage particles in the host cell, a piece of the host cell chromosome is accidentally packed along with the genome of the phage. When this phage carrying a piece of bacterial DNA infects some other bacterial cell, it injects the DNA into the new host cell resulting in transduction.

explanation:

the most common energy conversion is from kinetic energy to potential energy, and then from potential energy to kinetic energy.

later on comes the heat energy, mechanical energy, and other energy conversions.

this energy conversion is so common that we can find it in our day to day lives as well.

- one of the most common energy conversions involves the changing of potential energy to kinetic energy or kinetic energy to potential energy
