the potential for antibiotic resistance was recognized in the early 1940s, almost immediately after the first large-scale clinic

al use of penicillin, the first antibiotic. mass production of penicillin was part of the war effort of world war ii, when the drug was used widely by military populations to treat the wounded. however, even before the war had ended, resistance to penicillin was already being reported. in 1940, british biochemists sir ernst boris chain and sir edward penley abraham published a report about a bacterial enzyme capable of destroying penicillin. in the following decades, overuse and repeated exposure to antibiotic agents favored the selection and replication of numerous strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. select all of the statements that accurately portray the role of natural selection in antibiotic resistance. a) when bacteria are repeatedly exposed to antibiotics, they learn how to avoid the antibiotic and survive to reproduce. b) when people overuse antibiotics, the bacteria get resistant to the antibiotic and it is no longer an effective treatment. some bacteria possess a gene for bacterial resistance. these bacteria are likely to survive a course or antibiotics and reproduce. 09 d) bacteria containing the gene for antibiotic resistance can share a plasmid of the gene with other bacteria, allowing the population of bacteria with antibiotic resistance to survive and reproduce. when someone quits taking an antibiotic when they are feeling better, they likely kill only the weaker bacteria. the bacteria with a gene for antibiotic resistance survive, giving them the opportunity to reproduce. e

What is the function of the fungal structure shown?
vichka [17]
Like bacteria, fungi play an essential role in ecosystems because they are decomposers and participate in the cycling of nutrients by breaking down organic and inorganic materials to simple molecules. Fungi often interact with other organisms, forming beneficial or mutualistic associations.

A slow reproduction process is a disadvantage of which form of reproduction? sexual reproduction asexual reproduction binary fis
Klio2033 [76]

The right answer is sexual reproduction.

Reproduction is the set of processes by which a species is perpetuated, causing the birth of new organisms. In sexual reproduction, the increased complexity of the genome must develop two different but compatible versions: one male, the other female within each individual (two alleles from both parents). In addition, the species is constrained to a slower evolutionary process to maintain compatibility, where asexual individuals can mutate much more rapidly to adapt to changes such as many bacteria and viruses.
