Question

Many bacteria actively move nutrients into their cells through transporter proteins. Interfering with the function of these proteins could be used as a method to control the growth of unwanted bacteria. Justify why targeting these proteins might be effective in controlling bacteria growth by explaining the effect on the homeostasis of their cells if the function of these proteins is disrupted.

Answer 1

Due to n food available.

Step-by-step explanation:

This transporter proteins is responsible for the transportation of nutrients into the bacterial cell so with the destruction of this protein we can control the growth of unwanted bacteria because this protein provides food to the bacterial cell, if the cell gain no food it will die and there is a decrease occur in the population of bacteria. So we can say that the destruction of this protein helps in the controlling of bacteria.
