  • i find this very difficult to masterbate to....

  • @sincerelywithlove Discovered by Ellie Wollman and Francois Jacob, and explained beautifully in 'La sexualité des bactéries'. Masson ed. Paris, 1959. Its ok to call it sexual since it may be representing sexual polarity

    Not to seem disdainful :P

  • still a better love story than twilight

  • The F+ donor does not pass it's plasmid to the transconjugant via the pili!

  • @Nekton97 Or you're just immature and still don't understand what I mean. I know WHY people are making the jokes, but if they know exactly what's going on, then they shouldn't be making them. I was pointing something out.

  • @Weraisethenerdyflag you must be sheltered

  • Lol, the joke here still applies though, because conjugation is also referred to as bacterial sex, and it really serves the same purpose as vertical gene transfer in eukaryotes.

  • yeah !! so sexy

  • lol

  • This actually isn't sexual. The conjugation tube is formed, then the donor passes the DNA to the recipient, and the conjugation tube is broken off and the bacteria go their separate ways. This isn't a form of reproduction, so what's with the jokes?

  • hhhhhhhhhh First I am concentrating medicaly once the song started I forget it and start to dance hhhhhhhhhhh

  • Conjugate? Me?

    I never even kissed a girl!
