Describe two ways that people contribute to the spread of antibiotic resistance.

1 answer:

5 0

People contribute to <span>antibiotic resistance by not completing their full course of antibiotics as prescribed by doctors when they are sick. This allows the bacteria to adapt to the antibiotic because the incomplete treatment did not kill the bacteria. Another way in which bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics is the widespread use of antibiotics in everyday consumer products, such as cleaners and beauty products. These antibiotics end up in the environment, and diluted exposure to these antibiotics by bacteria allows the bacteria to develop a resistance. </span>

Describe how facilitated diffusion helps large molecules cross cell membranes. What kinds of proteins are involved?

Dima020 [189]

Yeah yeah so :D,

Large polar molecules can only cross the membrane with the help of protein named channel protein and carrier protein.

So, this both proteins act like a gate, the large molecules enter the protein and the protein let the large molecules in to the membrane. (see the picture so that you can understand more, its carrier protein)

the only difference between channel protein and carrier protein is, channel proteins has fixed shape while carrier protein can flip.
