None of those options are correct. 

Fungi produce,naturally, antibiotics that will kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria.
This is useful for them to limit competition in their natural environment but it's also useful for us because it will kill bacteria that cause us infections.

The only thing scientists had to do is isolate that antibiotic.

Some antibiotics that were developed from fungi: penicillin and cephalosporins.

Composed of a phosohlipid bilayer
Zigmanuir [339]

The cell membrane is composed of a phospholipid bilayer.

The cell membrane is primarily composed of a mix of proteins and phospholipids

Phospholipids are a major component of cell membranes.  They a head and a tail. The head is hydrophilic  (attracted to water) and the tail is hydrophobic (repelled by water).

They form a bilayer in which their hydrophilic heads face the aqueous cytosol and extracellular fluid  while their hydrophobic tails face away from the cytosol  and extracellular fluid.

The lipid bilayer is semi - permeable

Identify two general ways chemical mutagens can alter dna.
gavmur [86]
1) compound mutagens can go about as base analogs 
Analogs are perceived by DNA polymerase and consolidated into DNA set up of nucleotides and after that reason change by base-matching in a way that varies from the undifferentiated from nucleotide. For instance, 5-BrdU can be consolidated inverse An amid replication and after that combine as a C amid the following round of replication, making a TA CG change. 
2) substance mutagens can synthetically adjust base. 
Compound adjustment of bases changes their base-blending properties to such an extent that an altered purine will base-match with the wrong pyrimidine and the other way around. For instance, EMS is an alkylating operator that proselytes guanine to O6-methylguanine, which base-sets with T to make a GC to AT progress
