... During transformation, a cell takes in DNA from outside the cell. The external DNA becomes a component of the cell's DNA. Foreign DNA is first joined to a small, circular DNA molecule known as a plasmid. Plasmids are found naturally in some bacteria and have been very useful for DNA transfer. The pl ...
