In this question, we are going to talk about horizontal gene transfer.
00:07
Horizontal gene transfer, it refers to the process by which the genetic material, genetic material, it is transferred, genetic material is transferred between different organisms, between different organisms that are not parent, that are not parent and offsprings, that are not parents and offsprings.
00:46
So it involves the transfer of the genetic material such as genes or dna segments, genes or dna segments from one organism to another leading to the acquisition of new traits.
01:04
So, horizontal gene transfer, it can occur through several mechanisms.
01:08
First of all, we have transformation, transformation.
01:13
Here the genetic material is taken up from the environmental environment by a recipient organism, by a recipient organism and this process is commonly observed in bacteria...
