Many of the antibiotics are produced in prokaryotes by cloning procedures then it is screened and purified.
Antibiotics circulate in our bloodstream and it will act only in where the problem is.
Most of the antibiotics target bacterial translation.

∙ 13y agoAntibiotics are harmless against eukaryotes and only affect prokaryotes. Actually, even some prokaryotes aren't affected by it. Those who have grown an immunity or are archaebacterias are not affected by antibiotics.

∙ 10y agoSome antibiotics target cell walls, murein is only found in bacteria cells, so using an chemical compound (aka an antibiotic) that destroy only murein is very convinient. Other antibiotic may target proteins within outer phosphlipid bilayer in case of gram- bacteria. Other may target teichoic and lipoteichoic acids of gram+ bacteria. There are a lot of different types of antibiotics around. Every type impairs bacterial metabolism severely leading to it's death or disfunction.

What is the difference between something eukaryotic and something prokaryotic?
There are quite a few differences between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus, while eukaryotic cells do. Prokaryotic cells are not found in humans while eukaryotic cells are. Prokaryotic cells are primitive while eukaryotic cells are much more evolved.
Is cell division a prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells divide; eukaryotic cells through mitosis, prokaryotic cells through binary fission.
List prokaryotic cells eukaryotic cells and viruses in order of increasing complexity?
viruses, prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells
What are the primary differences between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells?
The main primary difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is that the prokaryotic cells don't contain a nucleus. The eukaryotic cells are also larger than the prokaryotic cells.
Looking at a cell under a microscope you note that it is a prokarote?
- prokaryotic cells do not have a nucleus and eukaryotic cells do. - prokaryotic cells lack some organelles and eukaryotic cells do not. - prokaryotic cells are not found in humans and eukaryotic cells are. - prokaryotic cells are always unicellular and eukaryotic cells are often multicellular. - prokaryotic cells reproduce/divide by binary fission and eukaryotic cells reproduce/divide by mitosis/meiosis
Why can antibiotics that selectively target bacterial ribosomes cause side effects for patients?
It has to do with the difference in composition of ribosomes in the eukaryotic cells versus the prokaryotic cell.
Are taste bud cells eukaryotic or prokaryotic?
are taste bud cells prokaryotic or eukaryotic
Which Are Bigger Prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?
Eukaryotic cells are larger than prokaryotic cells.

How are prokaryotic and eukaryotic alike and diffrent?
Prokaryotic cells have no nuclei and eukaryotic cells have a true nuclei. prokaryotic DNA is circular where eukaryotic DNA is linear.
What are the two major types of cells?
prokaryotic and eukaryotic
Do prokaryotic cells contain eukaryotic organisms?
No, but eukaryotic cells contain a descendant of a prokaryotic organism.
Is cell division a prokaryotic or eukaryotic cell?
Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells divide; eukaryotic cells through mitosis, prokaryotic cells through binary fission.
List prokaryotic cells eukaryotic cells and viruses in order of increasing complexity?
viruses, prokaryotic cells, eukaryotic cells
Does prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells contains plasma membrane?
Both eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells have a plasma membrane.
What are the primary differences between prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells?
The main primary difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells is that the prokaryotic cells don't contain a nucleus. The eukaryotic cells are also larger than the prokaryotic cells.
Do people have prokaryotic or eukaryotic cells?
The cells found in the human body are eukaryotic cells. Organisms that have eukaryotic cells are usually multicellular like humans. Organisms that have prokaryotic cells are usually unicelluar, like bacteria.
