Discussion - Bacterial Genetic Genes

Bacterial Genetic Genes , 200-300 Discussion

Scientists are concerned that bacteria will be resistant to all antibiotics within the next decade. Using your knowledge of genetics, describe how bacterial populations can develop drug resistance in such a short time frame. Explain why the following statement is false: Sexual reproduction is the only mechanism for genetic change. How can bacteriophages impact bacterial genetics? What extracellular appendages and mechanisms can bacteria use to introduce new genes to neighboring bacteria? Use references in MLA format.
