The beta-lactam group of antibiotics such as penicillins (i.e. Amoxicillin), cephalosporins (i.e. Cefuroxime), and carbapenems (i.e. Meropenem) is the most widely used group of antibiotics. Beta-lactams are bactericidal. Beta-lactams have no innate resistance to beta-lactamases (enzymes produced by bacteria to break down beta-lactam antibiotics), but they can be paired with a beta-lacamase inhibitor such as Clavulanic acid. Later generations of beta-lactams may offer resistance to beta-lactamases. Beta-lactams offer activity against a broad spectrum of bacterial pathogens, including gram-positive, gram-negative, and (in higher doses, such as Cefazolin) anaerobic coverage.
The correct option is A.
Fitness refers to the quantitative representation of natural and sexual selection within an evolution. Fitness can be defined in respect to a genotype or a phenotype. Relative fitness is described as the survival or reproductive rate of a genotype or phenotype relative to maximum survival or reproductive rate of other genotypes in the population. Thus, the fitness of a population can be determined by finding out the number of offspring that survive to adulthood.
