    In the synergistic response, the applied antibiotics work together to produce an effect more potent than if each antibiotic were applied singly. [1] Compare to the additive effect , where the potency of an antibiotic combination is roughly equal to the combined potencies of each antibiotic singly, and antagonistic effect, where the potency of ...

    There are two types of functional systems: System of the first type provide homeostasis due to internal (existing) resources of the body, inside its boundaries (e.g. blood pressure). System of a second type supports homeostasis due to a change of behavior, interaction with the outside world and are the basis of different types of behavior.
