Question

Bacterial cells have a chemically complex cell envelope. The cell envelope consists of a tightly bound three layer structure, i.e., the
A. Outermost cell wall followed by the plasma membrane and then the glycocalyx
B. Outermost glycocalyx followed by plasma membrane and the cell wall
C. Outermost cell wall followed by the glycocalyx and then the plasma membrane
D. Outermost glycocalyx followed by the cell wall and then the plasma membrane

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
Bacterial cells have a chemically complex cell envelope. The cell envelope consists of a tighty bound three layer structure, i.e. the outermost glycocalyx followed by the cell wall and then the plasma membrane.
