An antimicrobial<span> is an agent that kills microorganisms or inhibits their growth. </span>Antimicrobial <span>medicines can be grouped according to the microorganisms they act primarily against. For example, antibiotics are used against bacteria and antifungals are used against fungi.
</span>
Selective toxicity<span> refers to the ability of the drug to targets sites that are relative specific to the microorganism responsible for infection. Sometimes these sites are unique to the microorganism or simply more essential to survival of the microorganism than to the host.
Selective theory relates to antimicrobial because the antimicrobial is the drug that kills microorganisms and inhibits there growth, selective theory is the ability of the drug.

The correct answer is: 4) Standing defenses are always present; induced defenses develop in response to a threat
Induced defense is defense that can be changed or invoked when needed. Induced defenses are slow to happen. When invoked, induced defense requires energy but otherwise doesn’t.
Standing defense is always there. It is use, for example when predation is a constant threat.
The model attached represents facilitated transport, which is answer choice D. In the model, there are protein channels, which allow molecules to pass through them if they're too large to fit through the aquaporins (making diffusion an incorrect answer.) We can eliminate active transport since ATP isn't used to control transport, and we can eliminate endocytosis as it is a form of active transport. The remaining answer would be facilitated transport, which is a form of passive transport. Hope this helps! :)
