Which of the following contains peptidoglycan cell wall?
Correct answer: B. Bacterium
- A. Penecillium
- B. Bacterium
- C. Adiantum
- D. Polytrichum
Explanation
Bacteria contain a peptidoglycan cell wall. Peptidoglycan is a specific structural component of bacterial cell walls, and it is not found in fungi or other organisms. In contrast, fungi have a different type of cell wall primarily composed of chitin, which is distinct from the peptidoglycan cell walls of bacteria. So, the correct answer is "Bacteria."
