I’m a little bit confused with plasmids. I understand how they work replicate and function, but I can't say why do they exist ?
What is plasmid role, what is so special they do so they are worthy of existence? Almost every plasmid feature is “supported” by bacterial chromosome. Why when and how plasmid segregated form bacterial chromosome, why bacteria share their plasmids? They are unicellular organisms and they rarely benefit form from other cells (they help survive with plasmid) ?
p.s. many what, why, how, when... I couldn’t help, it sorry
