The correct answer is (c) transduction. Transduction is the process by which bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) transfer genetic material between bacterial cells. This occurs when a bacteriophage accidentally incorporates bacterial DNA into its genome during infection and transfers it to another bacterium.
