Why can't different genera of Enterobacteriaceae be distinguished by a Gram stain?
Adi S.
Bacteria in the genus Mycobacterium are considered atypical bacterial cells because: they contain the waxy mycolic acid in their cell walls they are Gram negative they are Gram positive they have no cell walls
Shaiju T.
Gram-positive bacteria have: A single cell membrane and thick cell wall made of many layers of peptidoglycan. A thinner cell wall with less peptidoglycan sandwiched between the cell membrane and an outer membrane.
