Use the scenario to answer the question.
You read an article that discusses a person who was recently treated for an antibiotic-resistant infection with bacteriophages. The article mentions that due to natural selection, this bacteria population may evolve to become resistant to phages. What is likely to happen if this bacteria population becomes phage-resistant? (1 point)
This bacteria population will evolve a stronger cell wall and become resistant to antibiotics as well.
This bacteria population will evolve fewer efflux pumps and become vulnerable to antibiotics.
This bacteria population will evolve a weaker cell wall and become vulnerable to antibiotics.
This bacteria population will evolve more efflux pumps and become resistant to antibiotics as well.
