1 answer:

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Lipopolysaccharides are substances that have both lipid and polysaccharide. LPS layer is the characteristic feature of gram-negative bacteria. The LPS layer is present in the outer membrane of the cell envelope of gram-negative bacteria. It is not found in Gram-positive bacteria.

Broad-spectrum drugs are the chemotherapeutic agents that are effective against several kinds of pathogens while the narrow spectrum drugs target only a limited type of microbes. Therefore, an antibiotic that attacks the LPS layer would be effective against Gram-negative bacteria only which in turn makes it a narrow-spectrum drug.

If the heart becomes damaged or weakened, how will this affect the body’s systems?
jek_recluse [69]
Think of blood as a gas/ fuel for the car ( your body). If there is no fuel, there's no movement (dead) so when the fuel tank is damaged the car won't function properly. 
 So if the heart becomes damaged, or weakened it would start making blood clots and damage the organs that need blood to function properly. The circulatory system wouldn't function properly and because other organs depend on the circulatory system it would cause a chain reaction, affecting other body systems. <span />
