Transposition Segment of DNA (eg, transposon) that can “jump” (excision and reintegration) from one location to another, can transfer genes from what to what and vice versa? Segment of DNA (eg, transposon) that can “jump” (excision and reintegration) from one location to another, can transfer genes from plasmid to chromosome and vice versa.
Transposition When excision occurs, it may include some what, which can be incorporated into a plasmid and transferred to another bacterium? When excision occurs, may include some flanking chromosomal DNA, which can be incorporated into a plasmid and transferred to another bacterium (eg, vanA gene from vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus to S aureus).

What are examples of spore-forming bacteria? Bacillus anthracis - Anthrax Bacillus cereus - Food poisoning Clostridium botulinum - Botulism Clostridium difficile - Pseudomembranous colitis Clostridium perfringens - Gas gangrene Clostridium tetani - Tetanus
Some bacteria can form spores - when? Some bacteria can form spores A at the end of the stationary phase when nutrients are limited
Some bacteria can form spores at the end of the stationary phase when what are limited? Some bacteria can form spores at the end of the stationary phase when nutrients are limited.
Spores are highly resistant to what? Spores are highly resistant to heat and chemicals.
What do spores have in their core? Have dipicolinic acid in their core.
