Why is not recommended to use antibiotics often

Biology

____ [38]3 years ago

Answer: It may cause the bacteria to become resistant to them and one they are resistant then the antibiotics are ineffective against the bacteria. It is then more dangerous since new antibiotics will need time.

Explanation:

If you take antibiotics for the wrong reason(s) or if you take them too often it can change bacteria so much, that antibiotics have a reduced effectiveness against them, or stop working against them all together.

The so called "bacterial resistance" or "antibiotic resistance" is a real thread to humans. Some bacteria have turned out to be resistant to even the most powerful antibiotics available. Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem.

Suppose you get infected with such resident bacteria, it means there is no longer an effective treatment by using antibiotics.

*EXTRA*

If left "un treated", the bacteria can grow, more or less, with unlimited exponential growth. In such scenarios, any "simple" bacterial infection, could turn out to be fatal.

Often the biggest problem is the lack of time to find out exactly what type of bacteria is making the patient ill. Because there are so many different bacteria, it is impossible to tell what is the right one without deduction and, that takes time (to grow visible cultures in the laboratory). Sometimes a patient might be already critically ill, in such cases, the doctor would want to start the treatment immediately, which could mean they <em>HAVE TO</em> start admitting a broad-spectrum antibiotic, to hopefully battle that group of different bacteria, which hopefully included the one that is making the patient ill. But if that specific bacteria turns out to be resestant, then that poses a very serious problem. Possible a fatal one, since the time is up, and the bacteria keep growing in numbers, roughly doubling in numbers every hour...

Answer:

The correct answer is option e) "germinating seeds, germinating seeds".

Explanation:

Germinating seeds need more oxygen than non-germinating seeds because when seeds starts to develop they need oxygen to perform aerobic respiration, which is the main source of energy until the plant develop leafs to perform photosynthesis. Since ATP is produced during aerobic respiration, the germinating seeds use more ATP as well.

How Do Cells Get Energy How do cells get energy?
lisabon 2012 [21]
<span>Cells need a source of energy, they get this energy by breaking down food molecules to release, the stored chemical energy.This process is called 'cellular respiration'. The process is happens in all the cells in our body. Oxygen is used to oxidize food, main oxidized food is sugar(glucose).</span><span>Jan 14, 2009</span>

Convert the volume of CO2 you measured in the glucose reaction to moles of CO2 using the Ideal Gas Law to solve for n. Assume P
olganol [36]
The assumption in this problem is that the gas, CO2, is ideal and that the ideal gas law is applicable such that,
                                     n = PV/RT
We simply substitute the given values to the equation above,
                                 n = (1 atm)(V) / (0.082 Latm/mol.K)(T)
                                           n = 12.20 V/T
