the way bacteria are able to develop immunity through transformation is the take up plasmids, small loops of DNA ranging from 6 kb to 100 kb (kilobase pairs), from their surrounding environment, which in some cases has a gene for antibiotic immunity the most common one is Ampr, Ampicillin resistance
Bacteria can develop resistance to antibiotics through genetic mutations or by acquiring resistance genes from other bacteria. Over time, the resistant bacteria population can grow, making the antibiotics less effective in treating infections caused by those bacteria. This can lead to treatment failure and the need for more powerful antibiotics.
Some bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics due to overuse or misuse of these medications. Examples of antibiotic-resistant bacteria include Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Vancomycin-resistant Enterococci (VRE), and Extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) producing bacteria. These resistant bacteria can cause infections that are more difficult to treat and may require alternative antibiotics.
Bacteria help to build immunity to diseases, they help to develop medications like penicillin, and they help to ferment food and drink.
The overuse of antibiotics can lead to antibiotic resistance in bacteria because it creates a selective pressure that allows resistant bacteria to survive and multiply while non-resistant ones are eliminated. This can happen when bacteria are repeatedly exposed to antibiotics, leading them to develop genetic mutations that make them resistant to the effects of the medication. Over time, these resistant bacteria can spread and become more common, making the antibiotics less effective.
Bacteria are biological agents that are susceptible to antibiotics but can develop resistance through genetic mutations or acquiring resistance genes from other bacteria. Overuse or misuse of antibiotics can accelerate this process, leading to the development of drug-resistant bacterial strains.

Bacteria
The bacteria may have grown in an environment where it is introduced to the antibiotics therefore making it immune to the drugs.
A microbiologist or medical scientist would study how bacteria are affected by antibiotics. They can investigate how bacteria develop resistance to antibiotics and explore new ways to combat antibiotic resistance.
They interrupt processes vital to the bacteria.

No, you can't develop immunity to UTIs.
Antibiotics only kill bacteria, they cannot be used effectively to treat a flu virus infection. Antibiotics don't affect viruses. Sometimes people with the flu develop secondary bacterial infections and then antibiotics may be given to treat or prevent this complication.
Yes to some bacteria. When antibiotics were first discovered they were considered 'miracle' drugs and over used to the point now that some bacteria will not respond. The term 'super bugs' are used to refer to bacteria that has changed so they can grow in the body causing thesame illnesses they once were effective in treating.
