Ans.

Antibiotic misuse or antibiotic abuse represents misuse or overuse of antibiotics that causes several serious health effects. It leads to development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria and other pathogens. MDR (multiple drug resistance) is a dangerous consequence of antibiotic abuse.

Bacteria with MDR are known as super bugs as they have become resistant to multiple drugs and cause life-threatening diseases.

Thus, it is important not to overuse or misuse antibiotics.

It's important to not misuse or overuse antibiotics because of the risk of drug addiction, and the side effects (overdose, and decline in physical health) of having misused and/or overused an antibiotic. In fact misusing or overusing antibiotics could create more problems than what you originally used the antibiotics for.

Are cockroaches refusing poison baits because of one particular ingredient?
Ainat [17]

it’s somehow re-jiggered its taste system so that the attractant that humans used to draw the insect to poison bait—the sugar glucose—now tastes bitter to the roach, and they avoid it. cockroaches began appearing that avoided the baits, and did so not because they were averse to the poison, but because they were averse to the attractant, glucose. This new trait turned out to be heritable, that is, it had a genetic basis.

Sever21 [200]

Answer: D)

Membrane proteins produce phospholids

Explanation:

Membrane proteins in the mitochondria do more than just generate cellular energy. The proteins in the membranes of the mitochondria are complex machines in the nanoworld that mediate the oxygen-coupled generation of energy in cells. Their role in this process is not yet understood in detail.

Membrane proteins perform a variety of functions vital to the survival of organisms: Membrane receptor proteins relay signals between the cell's internal and external environments. Transport proteins move molecules and ions across the membrane.
