Across
- 3. Acquiring of free floating genetic information that only occurs in a few types of bacteria
- 5. Most common form of reproduction in bacteria
- 6. Archaea found in deep sea hydrothermal vents and other extremely hot environments
- 7. Archaea found in water that is saltier than the ocean
- 9. the transfer of genetic information from 1 bacteria to another using a pilus
- 10. Viral reproduction in which a virus's genetic material is reproduced by the host cell during normal cell division
- 11. A lipid bilayer that surrounds the capsid in some viruses
- 13. A small infectious agent that can reproduce only inside the living cells of another organism
- 14. Archaea found in hot, acidic environments
- 15. an organic molecule that carries genetic information in the form of either DNA or RNA
