Mechanisms of Antibiotic Resistance, Part 1
Consider the different mechanisms through which antibioticsinhibit microbial growth, and consider what changes in the microbemight enable it to resist the inhibitory effects ofantibiotics.
Select all of the statements that describe a mechanism thatwould enable a microorganism to resist the action of anantibiotic.
Select all of the statements that describe a mechanism thatwould enable a microorganism to resist the action of anantibiotic.
| A transport mechanism that rapidly transports antibioticthrough the plasma membrane into the cytoplasm is developed. | |
| An enzyme that destroys the antibiotic is produced. | |
| A microbe develops a transport mechanism in the plasma membranethat rapidly pumps antibiotic out of the bacterial cell. | |
| An altered target enhances the binding of antibiotic. | |
| Target site is modified, so that an antibiotic is unable tobind to its target. | |
| Altered porins in the cell wall block passage of antibioticthrough the cell wall. |
