Place the following sentences in chronological order to describe how the spread of antibiotic resistance is the result of natural selection. Drag the text blocks below into their correct order. A population of bacteria are growing on a petri dish containing antibiotics. Most bacteria are susceptible to the antibiotic and die. Most bacterial cells now contain the plasmid for antibiotic resistance and are not susceptible to the antibiotic. New antibiotics are required. Some bacteria contain a plasmid that confers resistance to the antibiotic. These survive long enough to reproduce.

Industrial Processes

Industrial processes result in the manufacturing of products (biological products, such as enzymes, medicine) on a large scale using different methods, such as physical and chemical procedures. Few products such as pharmaceuticals, agricultural products, food items, etc., involve microbes and their enzymes. Such processes are termed industrial biological processes. Microbiology and biotechnology enable us to utilize the ability of microorganisms to produce enzymes, primary metabolites, and secondary metabolites, which in turn help to produce the desired products.
