A certain type of bacteria is determined to have become resistant to antibiotics. In which method of genetic transfer did the bacterial cells most likely engage in order to transfer the antibiotic resistant gene to other cells.

binary fission
conjugation
diffusion
thermoregulation

When bacteria become resistant to overused antibiotics it means that is not longer inhibited by the antibiotic at clinically achievable levels. One way how these bacteria replicate and transfer the resistance is by engulfing cellular DNA by neighboring cells.Bacteria can take up naked DNA encoding for resistance native to similar species and incorporate it into their genome
