25. How do bacteria become resistant to antibiotics?

• Because they use conjugation as a means of reproduction, they can take on the characteristics of other bacteria that are resistant

26. How are bacteria economically important to us?

• Foods- yogurts, cheeses

humans?• Malaria-by the Plasmodium carried by the

mosquito• African Sleeping Sickness- by the Trypanasoma

carried by the tse tse fly• Amebic dysentary- carried by the Giarda that is in

water• Toxoplasmosis (toxo) is an infection caused by a

single-celled parasite called Toxoplasma gondii.

of sunlight Heterotroph
