Question

Help please!

what would be an example of an antibiotic part of the environment?
a) temperature
b) trees
c) animals
d) plants

Answer 1

I would assume that the term "antibiotic" in this case would mean not living, so A

i'm not entirely confident in that answer though because antibiotic is typically a term for something that can destroy microorganisms. Based on the answers though there isn't anything that fits its usual description, and temperature is the only thing that stands out.

Answer 2

The Answer is temperature because antibiotic (the correct term is abiotic( would be something that is non living and temperature isn't a living thing. The prefix bio means live and the prefix a means not. a + bio= not living.
