Antibiotics are primarily produced by microorganisms, particularly certain bacteria and fungi. Notable examples include the bacterium Streptomyces, which is known for producing a variety of antibiotics like streptomycin and tetracycline, and the fungus Penicillium, which produces penicillin. These organisms synthesize antibiotics as a defense mechanism against competing microbes in their environment.
