Question
Antibiotics that target the bacterial ribosome have less side effects on humans because:
Antibiotics that target the bacterial ribosome have less side effects on humans because:
bacterial ribosomes are larger and structurally different
bacteria lack cell walls
bacterial ribosomes contain only sugar residues
bacterial ribosomes make proteins that human immune systems don’t recognize
bacterial ribosomes are smaller

Answers
GPT 3.5
bacterial ribosomes are structurally different from human ribosomes, allowing antibiotics to selectively target bacterial ribosomes without affecting human ribosomes. This specificity reduces the risk of side effects on humans.
