Madhur L.
A loose sheath of glycocalyx layer is called (a) Plasma membrane (b) Capsule (c) Slime layer (d) Cell wall
The structure of the glycocalyx/capsule can be BEST described as: A) the outermost part of the bacterial cell wall B) spore coat plus the spore septum C) a membrane located right outside the cell wall D) a sticky gel/syrup-like layer made of sugars and/or proteins E) a layer of proteins found between the cell wall and the plasma membrane Organisms placed in the same _____ are considered organisms of the SAME kind: A) kingdom B) genus C) species D) domain A bacterium has teichoic acids in its cell wall. It should… A) have an outer membrane in its cell wall B) have LPS C) have a long molecule of peptidoglycan wrapped around it many times D) be "gram negative" E) should turn red when we do the gram stain on it
