What types of matings are possible between $\mathrm{F}^{+}, \mathrm{F}^{-}, \mathrm{Hfr},$ and $\mathrm{F}^{\prime}$ cells? What outcomes do these matings produce? What is the role of the F factor in conjugation?
In the process of conjugation, there is an F+ donor cell "mating" with an F- recipient cell. If the mating is successful, what is transferred to the recipient cell? What would we now call the recipient cell (F+, F-, F', Hfr)? Could the cell that acquired the new DNA initiate conjugation with another cell? If so, what kind of cell could it conjugate with (F+, F-, F', Hfr)?
