Answer:

Antibiotic resistance is a consequence of evolution via natural selection.

Step-by-step explanation:

The antibiotic action is an environmental pressure; those bacteria which have a mutation allowing them to survive will live on to reproduce. They will then pass this traits to their offspring which will be fully resistant generation
