  • Card 17 / 44:
    Explain the reason why the imprudent and excessive use of antibiotics has resulted in a major global problem.

    Antibiotics kill bacteria that are sensitive to them; thus, only the resistant ones will survive. These resistant bacteria will reproduce, and therefore, after a while, there will be only resistant bacteria, making it more difficult to treat the diseases they may cause in humans.
