In the process of specialized transduction
A)all the genes of the first bacterial host are transferred to the second bacterial host by a phage
B)only a few specific genes from one bacterial cell are transferred to the second bacterial host by a phage
C)only a few specific genes from the bacteriophage are transferred to the second bacterial host by a phage

A)any random bacterial gene can be transduced
B)only genes on a plasmid can be transduced

A)True
B)False
