Wait, is this the exam for becoming a DNA gyrase superhero? Because if so, I'm gonna have to go with E. Penicillin - it's the only one that sounds like a superpower!

I'm stumped! This question is like a medical mystery. Maybe I should have paid more attention in microbiology class instead of doodling.

I'm going with D. Erythromycin. That's an antibiotic, right? And antibiotics can definitely mess with bacterial DNA processes.
