Which genetic transfer process involves a bacteriophage acting as the carrier of genetic material?

Show Answers

Transfer via direct cell-to-cell contactProcess of converting RNA into proteinIntegration of phage DNA into the host genomeExchange of genetic information through a pilusMovement of genes through plasmid replication

Explanation

The correct answer is lysogeny, where a bacteriophage incorporates its DNA into the host's genome, facilitating genetic transfer. Transduction involves phages transferring DNA but is distinct from lysogeny. Translation refers to protein synthesis, and conjugation is gene transfer via direct cell contact.
