If false, provide an explantion on the reason it is false, and include a corrected statement. _____1.Horizontal gene transfer is the movement of DNA from parent to offspring._____2.Genetic distance obtained from conjugation studies is measured in total nucleotides._____3.Bacteria that can uptake DNA from the environment are called competent cells._____4.Artificial conjugation may be used to introduce DNA into a bacterium from its environment using laboratory procedures._____5.The movement of genetic material by conjugation begins at a site on the plasmid called the start site._____6.Interrupted mating is a form of transformation study used to map bacterial genes._____7.Cotransformation and cotransduction experiments can be used to map closely linked genes in bacteria._____8.Both Hfr and F+ cells can transfer bacterial genes to F- cells during conjugation._____9.Plasmids that can integrate into the bacterial chromosome are called episomes._____ 10.
