Which of the given statements is incorrect about Horizontal Gene Transfer?

Which of the given statements is incorrect about Horizontal Gene Transfer? Correct Answer The transferred material becomes a temporary addition to the recipient genome

The transferred material becomes a permanent addition to the recipient genome. Although these exchanges do not occur very often on a generation-to-generation basis, a significant number can occur over a period of hundreds of millions of years.

On a non-pipelined sequential processor, a program segment, which is a part of the interrupt service routine, is given to transfer 500 bytes from an I/O device to memory.     Initialize the address register     Initialize the count to 500 LOOP: Load a byte from device     Store in memory at address given by address register     Increment the address register     Decrement the count     If count! = 0 go to LOOP Assume that each statement in this program is equivalent to a machine instruction which takes one clock cycle to execute if it is a non-load/store instruction. The load-store instructions take two clock cycles to execute. The designer of the system also has an alternate approach of using the DMA controller to implement the same transfer. The DMA controller requires 20 clock cycles for initialization and other overheads. Each DMA transfer cycle takes two clock cycles to transfer one byte of data from the device to the memory. What is the approximate speedup when the DMA controller based design is used in place of the interrupt driven program based input-output?
