Help pleas A patient has a severe bacterial infection. within a few weeks of treatment with an antibiotic, the bacterial population consists entirely of
antibiotic-resistant bacteria. How can this outcome most likely be explained?
OA The antibiotic caused a mutation in the bacteria's RNA,
OB. The bacteria began reproducing at a faster rate than before the antibiotic treatment.
Oc. The antibiotic created resistance in the bacteria, and the bacteria are passing the resistance to one another.
oDA Small population of antiblotic-resistant bacteria were present before the treatment, and natural selection increased their
frequency.
