Answer:

The correct answer will be option A Pili .

Step-by-step explanation:

Bacterial conjugation is the sexual mode of transfer of genetic material by direct contact between two bacterial cells.

This process is mediated by the formation of bridge like connection between two cells by specialized cell surface structures in bacteria called F pili.
