Cell-wall inhibiting antimicrobial drugs be less effective on gram-negative bacteria compared to gram-positive bacteria because the outer membrane of the gram-negative bacteria inhibits penetration of the drug and the peptidoglycan found in gram-positive bacteria is structurally different from that in gram-negative bacteria.
Answer: Option B & C
<u>Explanation:</u>
Antimicrobial drugs are induced into a body to act on that particular selective bacterium which causes disease. When antimicrobial drugs are injected they act efficiently on the gram positive bacteria inhibiting the proliferation of the cells by acting on the cell wall so that cell multiplication doesn’t happen.
On the other hand it is hard to act on the gram-negative bacteria as it has a cell membrane that inhibits drug penetration into it. Both cell walls contain peptidoglycan but in the gram-positive is more assembled and layered while in the gram-negative it is just a thin layer. As gram-positive is thick layered it provides place for another molecule to attach to it but the thin layer in gram-negative inhibits it.
Myocardial infarction, also known as heart attack to most people, is a result of an acute blockage of bloodflow to the heart. If a patient would ask the nurse why he/she is experiencing pain, it is best to tell the patient that chest pain or any discomfort in the arm, shoulder, neck, or back is caused by the decrease of blood flow to heart. Add to that, the nurse may inform the patient that people experiencing heart attacks may also feel shortness of breath, along with sweating, weakness, nausea, and fatigue. It is important to inform the patient about these symptoms so that he/she will be aware that these are common for people with myocardial infarction and that immediate medical attention is a must.
It will be able to target specific cells that need to be killed such as pathogens and not kill the entire organism.
Answer:
Once the concentration gradient no longer exists, particles will continue to diffuse due to random motion.
Explanation:
When there is a permeable membrane between two solutions with different concentrations, the concentration gradient will go from the compartment with more particles to the one with fewer particles to valance the concentrations on both sides of the membrane. Once the concentrations are equal, particles will still randomly move from one side to the other, but the number of particles that move to one side is almost the same as the number of particles that move to the other, so there is still valance and the same concentration in both sides.
