Which of the following describes why a drug may appear effective against a pathogen in clinical susceptibility tests but ineffective in a real-life context? To be marked correct, you'll need to select all applicable statements, as there may be more than one correct answer.
1. Compared to controlled susceptibility tests, the drug may be less active in a real-life context either due to drug inactivation by body processes or as a result of drug solubility issues.
2. Drug susceptibility tests are typically performed at room temperature (much cooler than human body temperature).
3. In clinical susceptibility tests, drug concentration is well controlled compared to a real-life context.
4. Unlike in controlled clinical susceptibility tests, the number of bacteria varies between tissue samples.

Ascientist conducted an investigation about the effects of diet on disease resistance in rats and made surprising observations. the mice with a genetic ear mutation seemed to show similar patterns of resistance compared to mice with normal ears. based on this information, what will most likely occur? a. she will perform a second investigation on the role of certain genes in disease resistance. b. she will revise her hypothesis to pertain to mutations rather than diet, and update her data accordingly. c. she will use this information to determine that her original question was nonscientific, so she will revise it. d. she will determine that her hypothesis was invalid because resistance must be genetic.
