Pesticides kill pests and disesaes.  Herbicides kill weeds.  See previous post about systemic pesticides.

Phagocytes use pseudopodia to engulf bacteria, and use enzymes to digest bacteria - a.k.a Phagocytosis.

Lymphocytes produce antibodies that kill bacteria in a variety of ways, including the agglutination of bacteria.

Selective weedkillers are synthetic auxins.  The auxins increase the growth of the affected weeds (uncontrolable growth).  The weeds cannot provide enough food from photosynthesis to maintain this rate of growth and soon die.

to increase food production, auxins r also used right? but is it controlled so that the growth wouldnt be uncontrolled such as what happens to the weeds?

can somebody tell me about penicillin fermentation???

-fungus penicillium are put inside the fermenter
-feedstock(the nutrients(glucose, amino acids)) are inserted to fermenter (glucose for fermentation, amino acids for growth of fungus)
-contents are stirred
-oxygen are inserted in the form of bubbles (provide large surface area for fungus)
-temperature, pH are regulated (regulation to make sure enzyme works in best condition)
-content are extracted
-penicillin are filtered

extra notes:
fermentation is an anaerobic respiration (C6H12O6 --> 2C2H5OH + 2CO2)
