Because antibiotic resistance is a genetic trait, it can be passed on to future colonies of bacteria. This trait could lead to an increase of infectious diseases, because current antibiotic treatments would be useless against them.
Antibiotic resistance occurs<span> when </span>bacteria change<span> in </span>a way<span> that </span>reduces<span> the </span>effectiveness<span> of </span>drugs<span>, </span>chemicals<span>, or </span>other agents designed<span> to </span>cure<span> or </span>prevent infections<span>. The </span>bacteria survive<span> and </span>continue<span> to </span>multiply<span>, </span>causing more harm to a person or host<span>.</span>
Microorganisms that are involved in the nitrogen cycle are able to break the triple of elemental nitrogen using special enzymes that they have developed and make ammonium. Other organisms like plants are unable to break the triple bond and therefore rely on these microorganisms so that they can absorb the ammonia
