Bacteria transformation is the process in which:
a. a bacterium uptakes genetic information from the environment
b. a prokaryotic process for cell division
c. bacteria exchange occus by copying a plasmid and passing it from one bacterium to another
d. a bacteriophage accidentally copies genetic information from one bacterium and inserts into the next cell it infects.

(a). a bacterium uptakes genetic information from the environment

Explanation:

Bacterial transformation can be defined as a process of gene transfer, in which bacterial cell uptakes naked DNA molecule from its environment through the membrane.

It is a method of horizontal gene transfer that involves transfer of genetic material from one bacterium to another without sexual reproduction.

thus, the correct answer is option (a).

my biggest life lesson is that if you do something bad/wrong it comes straight back to you karma. one time this kid threw an snowball at me then he slipped on ice now that's karma.
