State true or false-`In conjugation b/w 2 bacteria, one F+, and another F-, by chance if the genetic material of F+ is joined with main chromosomes of F-(which now become F+) then F+ bacteria will certainly die.`

This statement is false.
instead by transfer of F plasmid to F- bacteria both the bacterias after conjugation will become F+.
For more information:
Bacterial conjugation is a way by which a bacterial cell transfers genetic material to another bacterial cell. The genetic material that is transferred through bacterial conjugation is a small plasmid, known as F-plasmid (F for fertility factor), that carries genetic information different from that which is already present in the chromosomes of the bacterial cell. In fact, the F-plasmid can replicate in thecytoplasmseparately from the bacterialchromosome.
