Pepidoglycan is a polymer of millions of N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetyluramic acid (NAJ) sugars based in fenco patent Lavan cross-braced NAG and NAM sheets. These sheets are stacked vertically on glucose molecules linked together in a long chain. Cross-braced snane 12500nse and held together by protein $ mih fpid anchors attached extremely 0 matic pressing. How could you expect the cell's cytoplasmic membrane to be 63 micrometers thick? What is the composition of the pepidoglycan? Daduria? Pick the option that lists the composition of the bacterial cell wall.

What is the bacterial cell wall made of? Select one: a. sugars (NAG and NAM) and peptide chains b. sugars and peptide (NAG and NAM) chains c. sugars (NAG and NAM) and lipids d. sugars (NAG and NAM) and nucleic acid chains e. sugars and nucleic acid (NAG and NAM) chains

Nearly all bacteria contain peptidoglycan. Review the structure of peptidoglycan by selecting the correct characteristics listed below. All bacteria use a peptide interbridge to connect the sugar strands Contains a tetrapeptide that extends from N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) Contains D-amino acids not found in proteins Peptidoglycan is a strong and rigid structure Polymer of alternating N-acetylglucosamine (NAG) and N-acetylmuramic acid (NAM)
