Conjugation is the process by which one bacterium transfers genetic material to another through direct contact. During conjugation, one bacterium serves as the donor of the genetic material, and the other serves as the recipient. If there was a defect in a protein that codes for pili what effect would it have on conjugation?

a)

Conjugation would occur normally since it is the Fimbriae that is actually involved

b)

Conjugation would occur since pili are not found on bacteria

c)

Conjugation would not occur since the pili cannot grow to be a fimbriae

d)

Conjugation would not occur since the pili is responsible for the transfer of DNA between bacteria
