A protein in the bacteria releases hormone molecules which can fit in receptors of other bacteria. Once enough molecules are present in the receptors they lock in and tell the bacteria to glow. This system contributes to bacteria being multi-lingual. One system of communication is interspecies but there is also a generic system that bacteria use to talk to all bacteria. Bacteria use these system’s to decide what is the minority and majority in an environment. In humans bacteria use quorum sensing to coordinate attacks against their host increasing their virulence. Those coordinated attacks makes antibiotics
