Our topic for our grid is antibiotic resistance and evolution. When bacteria encounter antibiotics those that are resistant to the antibiotic survive. Those that survive then reproduce and the new strain of the bacteria is then all resistant to the antibiotic that was previously used to fight off the bacteria. One of the major causes of antibiotic resistance is that medications are not completely finished. When they are not finished not all of the bacteria are killed and they therefore have time to mutate and reproduce. This is when antibiotic resistance becomes a problem.
