10. _________________________ are the key structural components of the peptidoglycan polymer found in thecell walls of bacteria.

a) teichoic acid and lipoteichoic acid

b) N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM)

c) N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM) and teichoic acid

d) pseudomurein and periplasmodial sugars

Explanation / Answer

1c) mitochondria, cell wall, nucleus, ribosomes, plasma membrane, cytoplasm

Cell wall is not made of peptidogylan in eukaryoted and structures like capsids are also not characteristic

2 b) Ether linkage in plasma membrane isoprene lipids

In archea the linkages are ether type where as in other bacteria it is of ester type. So this is a unique feature.

3 a icosahedral. The rest are not symmetry types

4b) ascospores; ascus; ascocarp

the ascus is the sexual spore bearing structure producing 8 ascospores. It is located in the fruiting body called ascocarp
