Conjugation: Diagram the process of conjugation in bacterial cells (using F plasmid transfer):a. In you diagram, label the parts of both the donor and recipient cell, draw an arrow, then show the resulting cells and their resulting phenotypes. Label any other special features needed for this process.
Classifiation of Llfe A new organism was discovered in a deep sea vent at the bottom of the ocean. The researchers collected the sample and made careful observations of it. The picture at right shows a microscopic image captured at 1000X its actual size. Below are some other observations made: • When DNA was isolated from the cell, it was mixed with an equal portion of histone proteins • There are no visible organelles present inside the cell • The specimen seem to die in the presence of oxygen • Able to live in conditions that mimic deep sea vents without any external food source provided Based on these observations, determine each of the following and provide a clear rationale. A) To which domain would you assign this organism? Why? B) Propose a hypothesis of how they obtain nutrients. Are these most likely autotrophs or heterotrophs? Provide a rationale.
