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.

Answer:

The correct answer is : The concentration of solute in the environment is equal to the concentration inside the cell.

Explanation:

Isotonic environment is an environment the amount of solute concentration is equal on both side of the semipermeable membrane or the cell. in such condition there would be no water movement towards particular direction or will take place and as there is no water movement so there would be no change in shape or size of the cell. The osmotic pressure in an isotonic environment would be same on both side of the membrane.

Thus, the correct answer is : The concentration of solute in the environment is equal to the concentration inside the cell.
