Which of the following statements is true regarding the mechanisms of antimicrobial action?



SELECT ALL THAT APPLY

Group of answer choices

A single chemotherapeutic agent should work on many different targets on a pathogen.

Antisense nucleic acids interfere with protein synthesis.

Beta-lactam antibiotics have an effect on bacterial and fungal cells because they both have cell walls.

Nucleic acid analog drugs have no effect on human cell replication function.

Because all cells engage in protein synthesis, there are few antimicrobial drugs that selectively inhibit this process.

An antimicrobial that inhibits cell wall synthesis will result in the cells becoming more susceptible to osmotic pressure.
