Cell Wall Composition and Gram-Staining Quiz

Bacteria are typically larger in size compared to eukaryotic cells.

Flagella in bacteria are structurally similar to cilia found in eukaryotic cells.

All bacteria have membrane-bounded organelles.

Archaea share the same cell wall composition as bacteria, both having peptidoglycan.

The outer cell wall of bacteria is strengthened by peptidoglycan.

Gram-staining is a method used to determine the cell shape of prokaryotes.

Gram-positive bacteria have walls with a large amount of chitin.

Archaeal walls contain peptidoglycan, similar to bacterial cell walls.

Facultative anaerobes can only use oxygen for respiration.

Mycoplasms are prokaryotic cells.

Heterotrophs require CO2 as a carbon source.

Eukaryotic cell walls are primarily made of peptidoglycan.

Prokaryotes are multi-celled organisms that make up domains Bacteria and Archaea.

Prokaryotes possess membrane-bounded organelles like mitochondria and chloroplasts.

The majority of the prokaryotic genome consists of a linear chromosome.

The cell wall in bacteria is composed of cellulose.

Gram staining is a classification method used to differentiate between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.

Flagella in prokaryotes and cilia in eukaryotes serve the same function for cell movement.
