a) The brain is affected.
b) Antibiotics block and disturbes essential biochemical life processes of the microrganism. Like in bacterias, cell was is essential and without it they will die. Now these antibiotics go and stop the building of/destroyes the cell wall of the bacteria and so they die. Since antibiotics target the biochemical processes of only that type or microorganism, it does not affect out own body and it does not destroy or damage our cells. This is how antibiotics work.
c) No because encephalitis are viral infections. Now antibiotics DO NOT work on viruses, because viruses are actually memembrane less which means they show no life till they enter the host and use thier machinary. Now if the virus use our machinary,any antibiotics that are made for the virus will ALSO AFFECT OUR CELLS. Therefore antibiotics do not work on viruses.
