Answer:

Antibiotics are specially produced to attack the bacterial cells but not the healthy cells of the human body. The modern antibiotics target the bacteria causing infection in the body.These antibiotics are specific to bacteria as the proteins produced by the bacterial cell is different from the proteins produced by the human cell.

Most of the bacterial cell produces the cell wall that is made up of the macro molecule known as peptidoglycan. Human cells does not synthesis peptidoglycan.

In this way the antibiotics target specific kind of protein synthesized by bacterial cell only.

In 3-5 sentences explain how increases in the human population impacts water resources. provide specific examples in your answer
astra-53 [7]

An increase in human population negatively impacts the water resources. There is only a small amount of clean and drinkable water on Earth. If more people are on Earth, more of this water will be used by the population. An increase of people also means that more fossil fuel will be used.

<h3>How does human population impact water resources?</h3>

Population growth especially will limit the amount of water available per person, because an increase in per capita water consumption driven by development will intensify water demand, straining the local water supply.
