<u>1</u><u>.</u><u>Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection. The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this trait to their offspring, which will be a fully resistant generation.</u>

<u>2</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Bacteria evolve quickly because they grow fast and can share genes. Helpful mutations spread quickly in bacteria.</u>

<u>3</u><u>.</u><u>Taking antibiotics too often or for the wrong reasons can change bacteria so much that antibiotics don't work against them. This is called bacterial resistance or antibiotic resistance</u>

<u>4</u><u>.</u><u> </u><u>Antibiotic resistance leads to higher medical costs, prolonged hospital stays, and increased mortality. The world urgently needs to change the way it prescribes and uses antibiotics.</u>

<u>I</u><u> </u><u>think</u><u> </u><u>so</u><u> </u>

Why do the body structures of some species support Darwin's theories? because they have similar functions because they are very
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Because the have similar limbs.

Because they have similar functions.

Explanation:

(because they have similar limbs)

Homology (evolution) describes a structure that has similar function like limbs on dogs and bears (used for walking) and also have a similar arrangement of bones. The fins on a doplhin might be different from the wings on a bat but they reflect a common origin due to their bone composition e.g carpals and radius bones.

(because they have similar functions)

Analogy (evolution) describes a structure with  for example, bird and butterfly wings that have no common ancestor but have the same purpose, in this case flying. They developed independtly as adaptions. This supports natural selection which is a driving force for evolution.
