3. Transformation: Absorption of Free DNA Figure 8.24 In a lab setting, many bacterial species are not “competent” to take up donor DNA. They are incubated in CaCl 2 to make them competent and then heat shocked so they will suck up DNA fragments from the medium.

4. Plasmids: Autonomously Replicating Extrachromosomal DNA Fertility (F) factor is a plasmid that can direct the formation of a sex pilus and DNA transfer by conjugation
