A member asked:
If only some ribosomes of bacterium is inhibited and it remains alive, can it consume and absorb more resources than before inhibition, to recover?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bacterial infection: If an antibiotic which inhibits ribosomes only is partially effective, and bacteria remain alive, the remaining surviving bacteria (those who were resistant to the antibiotic) will replicate and can result in a large population of bacteria who now are resistant to that antibiotic.
