Which of the following is true regarding the bacteria?
Correct answer: C. Bacteria do not contain a membrane-bound nucleus, but they contain an non membrane-bound structure called the nucleoid
- A. Bacteria contain plasma membranes that are made up of triglycerides
- B. Gram staining reveals that bacteria contain cell walls, but no cell membranes
- C. Bacteria do not contain a membrane-bound nucleus, but they contain an non membrane-bound structure called the nucleoid
- D. All of these options are false
Explanation
Option A; All cells including bactria contain cell membrane but it is not made up of triglycerides.Option B: Gram staining tells us about the nature of cell wall gram positive and gram negative bacteria .It does not tell about cell membrane.Option C: Bacteria do not contain membrane-bound organelles such as mitochondria or chloroplasts, as eukaryotes do. However, photosynthetic bacteria, such as cyanobacteria, may be filled with tightly packed folds of their outer
