A bacterial cell that lacked receptors on its surface for that antibiotic

A bacterial cell that was going through binary fission when the antibiotic appeared

Verified Answer :

A bacterial cell that used its toxins to alter its DNA and resist the antibiotics is most likely going to be able to survive an attack by an antibiotic. If a cell lacks receptors or is going through binary fission, it would be easily attacked.
