Final answer:

Antibiotics are ineffective against viral infections due to their specific mechanism of action against bacteria.


Explanation:

Antibiotics are not effective against viral infections because antibiotics work specifically on bacteria, targeting their cell walls or metabolic processes. Viruses are not affected by antibiotics because they are intracellular parasites that utilize the host cell's machinery to replicate. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections, not viral infections.
