True. Some bacterial cells are resistant to a variety of antimicrobials because they actively pump the drugs out of the cell.

A significant resistance mechanism in Gram-negative bacteria is drug efflux. It expel solutes from the cell. Antimicrobials and metabolites are just a few of the hazardous compounds that Efflux pumps help bacteria remove from their interior environments so they can regulate it.

The main efflux systems in Gram-negative bacteria are members of the RND superfamily and typically consist of an outer membrane protein channel, a periplasmic protein, and a cytoplasmic membrane pump. The most common example is  MFS (such as Bmr and Blt in Bacillus subtilis) and the ABC transporters.

What happens to the amount of energy as you go up the energy pyramid? Be as specific as possible
yuradex [85]

Answer:

Energy decreases as it moves up trophic levels because energy is lost as metabolic heat when the organisms from one trophic level are consumed by organisms from the next level. Trophic level transfer efficiency (TLTE) measures the amount of energy that is transferred between trophic levels.

Explanation:

hope this helps!
