Since rifamycin inhibits the enzyme RNA polymerase, which is a key enzyme for synthesizing messenger RNA, the immediate effect of this antibiotic would be the inhibition of the process of transcription.
Messenger RNA is essential for protein synthesis because it is the mediator between the information in the DNA sequence and the process of translation in which the proteins are made. Therefore, by inhibiting RNA synthesis rifampicin ultimately stops the production of proteins.

Which of the following best describes the pattern of microbial death? Which of the following best describes the pattern of micro
____ [38]

Answer:

The cells in a population die at a constant rate

Explanation:

Microbial death is the loss of the ability of microbes to reproduce and survive in an environment. When a given microbial population is given a treatment, the microbial cells die at a constant rate. Microbial death rate  is not dependent on the specie and nor on the antimicrobial agent.

Therefore, the microbial cells in a population does not die at once but die at a constant logarithmic rate; the cells decreases exponentially as nutrients decreases and waste product increases.

For example, if 500,000 microbes are treated or in a nutrient depleted environment and 50,000 microbes is left after 1 minute, by the next minute under the same condition 5,000 microbial cells will be left and this pattern will continue, this explains exponential decrease
