Plasmids are extrachromosomal hereditary determinants, that is, chromosome-independent double-stranded ring-shaped DNA molecules of various molecular weights that have replicon properties, which are the ability for independent replication. Plasmids are not the obligatory genetic material of bacteria necessary for the manifestation of their vital activity. At the same time, plasmids can determine important properties of bacteria,…

Even though the fundamental theoretical foundation for the understanding of evolution has been in existence for the past few centuries, the essential significance of this framework is still debatable (Ayala & Robert 182). By population genetics, four basic forces influence evolution processes. These forces are natural selection, genetic flow, mutation, and genetic drift. Through natural…
