What else can I help you with?
An antibiotic is effective in killing 95 percent of a population of bacteria that reproduce by the process shown below which statement best describes future generations of these bacteria?
Future generations of these bacteria are likely to have a higher proportion of individuals that are resistant to the antibiotic due to natural selection. Over time, the resistant bacteria will survive and reproduce, potentially leading to the evolution of a population that is largely resistant to the antibiotic.
Can ignoring the signs of a wound infection cause bacteria to become drug resistant?
Yes, ignoring signs of a wound infection can allow bacteria to proliferate, potentially leading to the development of drug resistance. When antibiotics are not used appropriately, bacteria may adapt and develop resistance mechanisms, making them more difficult to treat in the future. Prompt recognition and treatment of infections are important to prevent the emergence of drug-resistant bacteria.
How has the species of bacteria become resistant?
In a large population of bacteria, there may be some cells that are not affected by the antibiotic. These cells survive and reproduce, producing even more bacteria that are not affected by the antibiotic.
Which of the following resulted from a genetic variation that was favored by natural selection?
The development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria is a result of genetic variation that was favored by natural selection. Bacteria that had a mutation making them resistant to antibiotics were able to survive and reproduce, passing on this trait to future generations. Over time, this led to the prevalence of antibiotic-resistant strains in bacterial populations.
How do microogarnisms avoid being attacked by antibiotics?
They don't. They develop a resistance to it. Just like people, each bacteria is slightly different even from bacteria of the same type. Some are slightly more resistant to a given drug than others. What happens is that when someone is given antibiotics and the drugs are not enough to kill all the bacteria only those that are most resistant to that drug remain. Even worse is when someone decides they feel better and stop taking their antibiotics. Then the bacteria split and/or share their genes with other bacteria and as a result that resistance is passed on to future generations.
What is an example of micro-evolution?
An example of micro-evolution is the development of antibiotic resistance in bacteria due to natural selection. When exposed to antibiotics, bacteria with genetic mutations that provide resistance to the drug survive and reproduce, passing on the resistant trait to future generations. Over time, the proportion of resistant bacteria in the population increases, leading to the evolution of antibiotic-resistant strains.
What does sustainability mean in resistant materials?
future proof
What occur after exposure to a certain bacteria and can help fight off the same bacteria in the future?
ccur (s) after exposure to a certain bacteria and can help fight off the same bacteria in the future
What would life be like without penicillin?
Simple scrapes, cuts and internal injuries would slowly build and ravage our body both from the inside-out and the other way around. There are certain strains of bacteria that are resistant to almost every form of antibiotic. 2 of them may cause a lot of damage in the near future: MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) and VRE (Vancomycin Resistant Enterococcus).
