Misha Larkins [42]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Some bacteria due to their structures and physiology are inherently resistant to some antibiotics. This could be due to lacking transport mechanism or lacking receptor sites. Bacterium develop resistance mechanisms by using instructions provided by their DNA. Resistance genes are often found in plasmids which are small pieces of DNA that carry genetic instructions from one germ to another. Meaning that some bacteria can share their DNA and cam make other germs become resistant.
