L.O: Understand what resistant bacteria are and how this links to the development of antibiotics and the theory of evolution.
Grade 4: Describe what is meant by an antibiotic resistant bacteria, why scientists want to slow down the rate of development of new strains of antibiotic resistant bacteria and list some ways in which scientists can do this.
Grade 6: Describe how antibiotic resistant bacteria evolve. Explain why scientists need to develop new antibiotics.
Grade 8: Explain how a fast reproduction rate is linked to the development of antibiotic resistance strains of bacteria. Explain how antibiotic resistant bacteria are evidence for evolution. Summarise the reasons why the development of new antibiotics is unlikely to keep up with the emergence of new strains of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

3. How do we get antibiotic resistant bacteria?
2.4b Wipe out
How do we get antibiotic resistant bacteria?
Meet Paul. Paul’s throat is worse. He can hardly swallow. His doctor has given him an antibiotic. It will destroy the bacteria in his throat but it won’t cure his cold. Antibiotics don’t affect viruses. 3

4. 2.4b Wipe out
Paul’s doctor said, “Take every tablet even if you feel better soon.” Paul wonders why. 4

5. Meet the bacteria

6. It’s Paul’s first day on antibiotics…
…and he already feels better

7. On the second day….
…he’s nearly cured.

8. On the third day….
…he feels great, so he stops taking his antibiotics.

9. On the fourth day….
…some bacteria are left….which could mutate.

10. And reproduce…..

Have they included…
Mutations produce new bacterial strains
Antibiotic resistant bacteria are not killed by antibiotics
They survive & reproduce so their population rises.
The resistant strain spread as people are not immune and there is no effective treatment.
We can reduce the rate of resistant bacteria by:
Doctors only prescribing antibiotics for serious bacterial infections (i.e. not viruses/non serious infections)
Patients completing their course of antibiotics
Reducing the agricultural use of antibiotics.
Development of new antibiotics is slow and costly.
Unlikely to keep up with the emergence of new strains
