Apopulation of bacteria is treated with an antibiotic. because of variation in the population of bacteria, what is a possible outcome of the treatment? a)the population will increase rapidly. b)all of the bacteria will be resistant to the antibiotic. c)the population will be better able to obtain a food source. d)some of the bacteria may be resistant to the antibiotic and survive.

D) Some of the bacteria may be resistant to the antibiotic and survive.

An antibiotic is an chemical preparation which includes a biological agent in the form of bacteria. It is a medication which is used for the treatment and prevention of bacterial infections. They may either kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria in the host organism. It mimics the one which is already present in the host body and fight with it to provide the immunity against the disease.

According to the given situation, some of the bacteria will survive as they may  attain resistance against the antibiotic because of adaptation. Variations in the genome of these organisms may occur to attain resistance against the bacteria which is present in the antibiotic formulation.

the transfer of energy between two molecules spaced just nanometers apart plays a key role in many technologies, including photovoltaics, quantum information systems, lighting, and sensors, as well as in biophysics to measure nanometer distances and in photosynthesis. but an open question in this area is what effect, if any, the surrounding photonic environment has on this nanoscale energy transfer. by designing and performing a carefully controlled experiment to answer this question, scientists have settled the debate and found clues to improving the efficiency of many of the technologies that rely on this process.
