Antibiotic resistance occurs when the human body resists an antibiotic; the bacteria are not under selective pressure Antibiotic-resistant cells are naturally stronger, so they always take over in the presence of antibiotic- sensitive cells Antibiotics kill off sensitive cells, while resistant bacteria survive and multiply O In the presence of antibiotics, most bacterial cells react by becoming resistant before they start dividing again MacBook Air DD 000 80 F9 000 F8 F7 F5 F6 F3 F4arrow_forwardThe process of PCR: uses temperature changes to generate thousands of copies of a small piece of DNA uses specialized bacterial enzymes to chop up DNA into specific length segments uses temperature changes to generate thousands of copies of a ribosome uses specialized antibodies to tag specific ribosome subunits with different colorsarrow_forward
