Cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-positive bacteria because the outer membrane of the gram-negative bacteria inhibits penetration of the drug and the peptidoglycan found in gram-positive bacteria is structurally different from that in gram-negative bacteria.
Answer: Option B & C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Antimicrobial drugs are induced into a body to act on that particular selective bacterium which causes disease. When antimicrobial drugs are injected they act efficiently on the gram positive bacteria inhibiting the proliferation of the cells by acting on the cell wall so that cell multiplication doesn’t happen.
On the other hand it is hard to act on the gram-negative bacteria as it has a cell membrane that inhibits drug penetration into it. Both cell walls contain peptidoglycan but in the gram-positive is more assembled and layered while in the gram-negative it is just a thin layer. As gram-positive is thick layered it provides place for another molecule to attach to it but the thin layer in gram-negative inhibits it.
Active transport requires energy when moving molecules against a concentration agent. It requires for specific membrane transport proteins. Only a certain type of protein can move a certain type of substance.
The three main types of Active Transport are:
1) Sodium-Potassium Pump
2) Endocytosis

Giraffe is the animal with bottom teeth.
All are aspects of antibiotics resistance in bacteria.
• overuse of antibiotics in humans
• bacteria can reproduce so quickly
• any use of antibiotics will select for resistant bacteria
• overuse of antibiotics in livestock
Answer:
Nitrogen is an important nutrient for all plant cells, and it is component of the chlorophyll found in leaves. Which of the following statements best describes how nitrogen is absorbed and distributed to the leaves of the plant so that photosynthesis can take place?
Nitrogen is absorbed by the roots and distributed upwards through the xylem
Explanation:
Nitrogen are gotten from the ground by the plants before it is transported through xylem to the stem and then the leaves
