Many bacteria are able to pass small pieces of the hereditary information on their dna from one bacterial cell to another. this can sometimes result in an increase in the number of drug-resistant bacteria. what name is given to the process by which one bacteria transfers dna to another? a) sporolysis b) conjugation c) gametic transfer d) haploid translocation

a unit of heredity that is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring.

it has to be understood that the sea water contains a huge amount of sodium and chlorine ions and if they enter the cell of the atlantic cod fish, the cell will shrivel and the fish will die. to avoid such a condition, the fish uses active transport for the purpose of removing the ions against the gradient.

explanation:

the atlantic cod is not a maritime osmoconformer. its native application of salts is less than that of the seawater it lives in. it is continually falling water from the gills to the ocean via osmosis.

countering that, the fish is going to be swallowing seawater. but since its internal collection of salts is lower than seawater, the fish will want to go free of excess salt, and since that's going upon a gradient, then active transport, requiring energy, must be used to pump out the salt. much marine fish use the organs to filter out the salt and these fish discharge very straight urine.
