<span>Fungal diseases are difficult to treat mainly because they are eukaryotic organisms just like us humans, and therefore have less differences for drugs to target without harming the human body as well. Most antibiotics target e.g. the peptidoglycan layer in the bacterial (a prokaryote) cell wall, which is a safe target since eukaryotic cells do not have equivalent structures. Similarly many differences in metabolic pathways between humans and prokaryotes is often targeted by antibiotics, but metabolism of fungi and humans is much more uniform, and hence it is difficult to exclusively target the fungi only.

Answer:
Swelling of the red blood cells occurs.
Explanation:
- <u>Distilled water makes the blood hypotonic ,. that is a less concentrated solution, to the body tissues including the red blood cells. </u>
- Therefore the water will enter the red blood cells and may cause them to lyse or swell.
- <em>Additionally , water will enter the tissue spaces and cause sweling. </em>
- But in the case of a hypertonic solution , ( a salt or saline solution ) , <em>This swelling does not happen because the concentration of the saline will be equal or more than the blood. </em>
- Thus the water will flow only from the blood to the solution. <u>This will not cause swelling.</u>
- But too much of salt is also not recommended.
