Answer:

This is antibiotic resistance. It occurs with over use of antibiotics.

When antibiotics are over used, likely targeted bacteria are being   killed constantly even in absence of an infection. However,  few  bacteria may resist the antibiotics effects(selective pressure) , and therefore survived. If these resistant bacteria who were able to survive the selective pressure  reproduce, they pass the resistant trait/ gene into their offspring.

Therefore with continuous exposure to antibiotics, they will  resist the antibiotics effects(selective pressure),and thus reducing the effectiveness  of antibiotic treatments  with subsequent application.

The animal cell and plant cell are both eukaryotic cells. Eukaryotic cells are the type of cells that contains membrane-bound organelles, such as the nucleus, mitochondria, Golgi apparatus and a cytoskeleton.

However, some of the organelles that are not present in both the animal cell and the plant cell are centrosome and lysosomes.

<u>The </u><u>lysosome</u><u> is present only in the animal cell.</u>
