Antibiotics are the medicines which inhibit the growth of bacteria and kill them. Antibiotics act by blocking certain biochemical pathways which are essential for the survival of bacteria like cell wall formation, protein synthesis etc.
For example: Penicillin is an antibiotic. It blocks the formation of cell wall in bacteria, which makes bacteria weak and ultimately results in death of bacteria.
Other examples are:- Cephalosporin,Tetracycline ,Cephalolsporins,Bacitracin
Uses: Antibiotics are used to treat many bacterial infections like typhoid etc
