Not necessarily. Protozoan do not have rigid cell walls. The antibiotic works by destroying the rigid cell was of a bacteria, thus destroying the bacteria. The protozoan have the same pressure on the outside of the cell, as they do on the inside of the cell. With no rigid cell wall, the antibiotic would not work the same, as there is no cell wall or pressure to disturb.

Natural selection example?

A great example would be Antibiotics and Bacteria. When humans create an antibiotic, it wipes out a lot of the bacteria in your body. The ones that that don't get affected by it probably have a resistance to the antibiotic. As those bacteria multiply and grow, the others die out due to the antibioitic. Soon the anti-biotic resistant bacteria will take over the human body, and the humans would have to find another antibiotic to counter the new bacteria. The cycle goes on and on......
