D

Explanation:

1. Drug resistance is the phenomenon in which the organism become resistance to drugs, means the drug against which the organism become resistance has no effect on that organism.

3. These genes can be located on plasmids as well as on chromosomes.

Drug resistance microbes can grow in the presence of drug.
