No- because penicillin inhibits cell wall synthesis and Mycoplasmas don't have a cell wall.

What group of antibiotics would mycoplasma be resistant to?
Mycoplasma lack cell walls. Therefore, any antibiotic that targets the cell wall of bacteria would be ineffective to mycoplasma. Examples are beta-lactam antibiotics such as penicillin. Beta-lactam antibiotics target the synthesis of peptidoglycan, an important component of the bacterial cell wall.
What would a doctor give you if you are allergic to penicillin?
Penicillin is a beta-lactam. Although beta-lactam antibiotics are wide-spectrum antibiotics, meaning they can be effective against a wide array of infections, there are other options in cases where it is not possible to administer beta-lactams. This is information I have gathered from other sources below.

What moves are super effective against kingdra in Pokemon emerald?
See, electric type moves are effective against water Pokemon. Thunder or Thunderbolt are powerful attacks very effective against water Pokemon such as kingdra. ACTUALLY, since Kingdra is a dragon type too, electric type moves are just normally effective. Dragon type is super effective against Kingdra. But then Kingdra would be supereffective against you too!

Which antibotic would be most effective in treating throat infection?
It would depend on the source of the infection. That is why we see a doctor and/or have a throat culture taken. If it is not a bacterial infection (virus or yeast) than an antibiotic would not help and treating with antibiotics will delay proper treatment and may allow the infection to progress to a more serious stage. If it is bacterial, penicillin is the usual antibiotic unless the patient has a penicillin allergy or the doctor knows that penicillin is not appropriate for that type of bacteria.
