Has antibiotic resistance affected endocarditis?
Unfortunately, in recent years, the treatment of endocarditis has become more complicated as a result of antibiotic resistance
What is an example of direct evidence for evolution is... genetic changes in plants antibiotic resistance in bacteria pesticide resistance in insects or all of the above?
genetic changes in plants, antibiotic resistance in bacteria, and pesticide resistance in insects.
What is the mechanisms of resistance to chloramphenicol?
Chloramphenicol is one of the broad spectrum antibiotic used to treat typhoid fever. Resistance occur by way of mutation in ribosomes, By way of decreased permeability of cell wall and production of inactivating enzyme.
When bacteria are not affected by antibiotics they have?
They have resistance to the antibiotic.
Antibiotic in gene cloning?
If antibiotic resistance is added to the gene being cloned, antibiotics can be used to isolate the transformed bacteria (ones with the gene being cloned) by killing off all non-transformed bacteria, that don't have the antibiotic resistance. There is a chance that the non-transformed bacteria can mutate to develop antibiotic resistance.
Is it true cells containing a plasmid with an antibiotic resistance gene will die in the presence of the antibiotic?
false
What can gene for antibiotic resistance be used for?
genetic marker
What are two examples of biological resistance?

True or false cells containing a plasmid with an antibiotic resistance gene will die in the presence of the antibiotic?
false
