Why don't antibiotics work on viruses?


because they reproduce inside cells, and it is hard to create a medicine that destroys the virus but doesn't damage body cells.

explain tissue culture


Tissue culture is where plant tissue is scraped off of the parent plant from the leaves etc. Then the plant tissue is placed into a sterile Petri dish which includes plenty of nutrients and growth hormones such as auxin. Next, inside of the Petri dish, the samples develop into small plantlets which are clones of the parent plant due to asexual reproduction. Finally, the plantlets can be placed into compost where they can grow into full sized plants.

explain tissue culture


Tissue culture is used to grow rare and important plants. Tissues are scraped off the parent plant and placed in agar jelly in a petri dish with nutrients and Auxin. These grow into little plantlets which are then planted into compost. Tissue culture is more expensive than cuttings but it causes less harm to the parent plant.
