Antibiotic resistance (mg/ml)
After an initial decline, the number of
bacteria eventually rises again as antibiotic-
resistant bacteria emerge and multiply
At the beginning of antibiotic therapy, most
of the bacteria were already resistant to 50
mg/ml of the antibiotic
After about 5 days of treatment, the bacteria
in the patient's samples were resistant to 50
mg/ml of the antibiotic
None of the other four answers (All of these
statements are true)
