How Do Penicillin and Similar Antibiotics Affect Prokaryotic Cells

Multiple Choice

How do penicillin and similar antibiotics affect prokaryotic cells?

A) These antibiotics interfere with the action of prokaryotic ribosomes which disrupts proper cell membrane formation,resulting in cell death.
B) These antibiotics disrupt the formation of the cell wall so it cannot counteract osmotic pressure in a hypotonic environment,resulting in cell lysis.
C) These antibiotics disrupt the formation of the cell wall so it cannot counteract osmotic pressure in a hypertonic environment,resulting in cell lysis.
D) These antibiotics disrupt the formation of the cell membrane so it cannot counteract osmotic pressure in a hypotonic environment,resulting in cell lysis.
E) These antibiotics interfere with the action of prokaryotic ribosomes so normal protein synthesis cannot occur,resulting in cell death.
