Answer:

over time the antibiotic will become less effective against bacteria.

Explanation:

A new antibiotic can kill a greater percentage of bacteria because very less bacteria is resistant towards that antibiotic but when that antibiotic is used continuously for a long time then some bacteria develop resistance against that antibiotic and due to natural selection these bacteria are selected.

So if a particular antibiotic kills 99% of a bacterial population so the continuous use of this antibiotic will allow some bacteria to evolve resistance against it. Then these resistant bacteria will be selected by natural selection and over time the antibiotic will become less effective against bacteria.

A protein that is normally localized in the cytoplasm has been engineered so that it will be secreted from the cell instead.
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

E. rER \to Golgi \to secretory vesicle \to environment

Explanation:

A protein that is normally localized in the cytoplasm has been engineered so that it will be secreted from the cell instead will follow the following sequence:

Rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) (where the protien is being snthesized)-------------> Golgi apparatus (where the sorting and packaging of the protien occurs)-----------------------> Secretory vesicles-------------------------> Environment.

Hence E. rER \to Golgi \to secretory vesicle \to environment is the right answer.
