Solution

The correct option is C F-factor
F-factor is also called as fertility factor. It is the sex factor of bacteria. It allows the transfers of genes from one bacterium carrying the factor to another bacterium lacking the factor by the process of conjugation. It is found in some bacteria only.
Thus, the correct answer is 'F-factor.'
