They are naturally produced by microorganisms, such as fungi, to attain an advantage over bacterial populations. Antibiotics are produced on a large scale by cultivating and manipulating fungal cells.

Detailed explanation-4: -Biotechnology is technology based on biology, especially when used in agriculture, food science, and medicine.
