Choose the event below that does not occur during bacterial conjugation. Multiple Choice The recipient cell becomes a donor cell after conjugation. Enzymes cleave one strand of the DNA at the origin of transfer. Transfer of the DNA strands occurs in both directions. Shortening of the pilus occurs during conjugation. Direct contact between is made between donor and recipient cells.
