Question

30
microbial resistance to drugs is acquired through
multiple choice
conjugation.
transformation.
transduction.
all of these are means by which resistance can be transferred between bacteria.

Explanation:

Microbial drug resistance can be transferred between bacteria via conjugation (direct transfer of genetic material between bacteria), transformation (uptake of foreign DNA from the environment), and transduction (transfer via bacteriophages). So all these mechanisms are involved in acquiring drug resistance.

Answer:

D. All of these are means by which resistance can be transferred between bacteria.
