Anastasy [175]

Answer:

The correct answer is "cell lysis due to the effect of osmotic pressure".

Explanation:

The cell wall is a structure that brings protection from the outside world and also helps to maintain the cell's water balance. The cell wall prevents that the cells is exposed to a large amount of turgor pressure, making the cell turgid when it is under extremal conditions. Some antimicrobials, such as bacitracin, block cell wall synthesis which makes the cell unable to support turgor pressure, resulting in cell lysis due to the effect of osmotic pressure.
