which pathogen is killed by antibiotics
Bacteria can often be killed by antibiotics because the cell wall on the outside is destroyed, expelling the DNA out of the body of the pathogen, therefore making the pathogen incapable of producing proteins and dies. Bacteria typically range between 1 and 5 micrometers in length.
Viruses are not killed by antibiotics; there are also other types of sickness, such as cancer, which cannot be killed by antibiotics. Antibiotics are only useful for treating â¦bacterial infections.
