Why must most antibiotics be given some time to take effect on a disease-causing population of bacteria?

Biology

Eva8 [605]3 years ago

The correct answer is d. "Regeneration" means "forming new cells," and signifies that the disease-causing bacteria cells are multiplying. When there are more of these cells, there is a higher chance for antibiotic resistance (making it take longer for the antibiotics to work). Once there is a smaller concentration of these bacterial cells, the antibiotics become more effective.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B

Explanation:

Antibiotic is the antimicrobial substance which inhibits the growth of the bacteria by interfering with different process and destroying the cell wall.

If the same antibiotic is used for the same colony of bacteria then bacteria can respond by becoming resistance to the antibiotic and as a result of this, the antibiotic becomes ineffective for the bacteria.

Since bacteria live for only a few days, therefore, the disease-causing bacteria dies off after a few days. The antibiotic then acts on the susceptible bacteria and kill the bacteria.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.

How does genetic variation affect the type of traits or the adaptations in the individuals of a species?
Gnesinka [82]
Genetic variation describes the genetic differences among individuals of the same species that are naturally occurring.  <span>Each genotype within a population usually has different degrees of fitness to an environment. Mating between same species with favored genes guarantees survival of the population in their chosen environment. As the environment changes, the mating behavior between species may again change resulting to a different gene pool to guarantee survival. </span>

olga2289 [7]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

This means the dolphin is an vertebrate.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Gill pouches are the structures which are present in all vertebrates in the embryonic stages while it is present in fishes and amphibian in later life also.
  • It is thought to be the ancestral structures present in vertebrates. These pouches are then converted to lungs in the later life. For the water animals they are used for respiration.
  • They are actually the muscular walls containing respiratory lamellae on its inner side.
  • Hence in dolphin they are signs that dolphin is an vertebrate.
