Answer»

Correct option is (b) REPAIR

The explanation is: In prokaryotes, the repair is mainly the SOLE recombination as these organisms have only ONE copy of chromosomes. Two COPIES are available only during fission when this recombination takes place. Gene transfer processes and their INCORPORATION are very rare.
