Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Farmers using an abundance of antibiotics to treat feedlot animals have contributed to the widespread antibiotic resistance. This is because the antibiotics used to treat animals are often similar to those used to treat humans, and the excessive use of these antibiotics in animals can lead to the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria that can be transferred to humans. The other options are not as significant in contributing to antibiotic resistance as the use of antibiotics in animal agriculture.
