Answers
Answer:
1a) Antibiotics, also known as antibacterials, are medications that destroy or slow down the growth of bacteria.
Penicillin is an effective drug to combat bacterial infections because it targets bacteria-specific proteins and has no effect on human proteins. When a bacterium divides, penicillin prevents it from reforming a new cell wall, and the two daughter cells “pop”.
2a)(a) Principles of treatment:
(i) To reduce the effect of disease, like medicines to bring down fever, reduce pain or loose motions.
(ii) To kill the cause of disease i.e., to give medicine to kill the microbe responsible for disease.
(b) Sexual contact, blood to blood contact with infected person, from infected mother to her baby during pregnancy.
