Solution

Limited spectrum antibiotics are effective against a single organism.

Explanation:

The term "limited spectrum" means the antibiotic has a very narrow and restricted range of action , it can only kill or inhibit one specific type of microorganism. This makes it highly targeted but less versatile compared to broad-spectrum antibiotics.
