Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Antibiotics are substances produced by microorganisms, which suppress the growth of or kill other microorganisms at very low concentrations.

Indiscriminate use of antibiotics by patients themselves, unqualified people and doctors have been held responsible for growing drug resistance.
