Antibiotics and its work on bacterial growth is described below :

Antibiotics are medicines or drugs that are useful or beneficial in destroying or killing bacteria and curing infections.

Antibiotics work only on bacteria. They do not work on other organisms like virus, fungi, etc.

Antibiotics targets the bacteria and inhibits its growth by preventing them to reproduce, or by killing the harmful bacteria.

They also block the bacteria's mechanism to build cell walls.
