Answer»  1. The term broad-spectrum antibiotic can refer to an antibiotic that acts on the two major bacterial groups, gram-positive and gram-negative, or any antibiotic that acts against a wide range of disease-causing bacteria. An example of a commonly used broad-spectrum antibiotic is ampicillin. 2. Fermentation is a metabolic process that produces chemical changes in organic substrates through the action of enzymes. In biochemistry, it is narrowly defined as the extraction of energy from carbohydrates or sugars in the absence of oxygen. 3.A drug used to treat bacterial infections.
