Suppose that a new bacterium has been discovered called Microaerophilus gonorrhearulz. It can cause respiratory disease in humans. M. gonorrhearulz is a chemoorganotrophic microaerophilic heterotroph. It produces a toxin that interferes with the electron transport chain of human cells.   Given that information, come up with, and describe, just one way to possibly treat someone with M. gonorrhearulz infection. In other words, discuss how you could take advantage of its metabolic characteristics (the ones described above) to come up with a treatment that would harm the bacterium but not human cells.   IMPORTANT: To receive credit for your answer, it must be based only on things that we actually learned about in class (i.e. can’t be an answer that a Google search or AI chatbot might give someone). Also, your answer must describe just one possible treatment.
