Convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in the transfer of heat.

In patients infected with nonresistant strains of the tuberculosis bacterium, antibiotics can relieve symptoms in a few weeks. H
Natali [406]

Answer:

Infectious dose refers to the minimum number or amount of pathogens required in order to produce a disease or its symptoms. In the given case, the bacterium is non-resistant and is treated with antibiotics.

The antibiotics help in neutralizing the infectious agents; however, full course should be done to eliminate the infectious agent completely out of the body.

If the course is left in between then, there are very high chances that some bacteria may survive. They might not produce disease or symptoms as they would be less than infectious dose.

However, with time, the survived bacteria gain more and more mutations during replication which can develop antibiotic resistance capability in them.

In addition, it is also possible that the survived bacteria can get R-plasmid (which has antibiotic resistant gene) from body's normal flora or from any other infectious agent present in the body by the process of transformation or conjugation.

The R-plasmid enables them to survive even in the presence of antibiotics due to which the treatment of the disease might become difficult.
