The cells of plants algae fungi and most bacteria get their shape from?
They get their shape from the cell wall
How can bacteria be classified?
according to its shape,flagella as well as cell wall
Why are Mycoplasmas pleomorphic?
Mycoplasmas can be described as pleomorphic because they do not have a rigid shape. They can stretch and change their shape because they lack murein or peptidoglycan in their cell walls. In addition, mycoplasmas are the smallest bacteria capable of self reproduction.
Do bacteria cell walls have peptidoglycan?
Yes, bacteria walls have peptidoglycan. Peptidoglycan is that target for antibiotics like penicillin, which prevent the cell wall formation. This causes the bacteria to burst with turgor pressure.
Firm protective structure that gives the cell its shape in plants fungi most bacteria and some protests?
A Cell Wall
What causes cell to change shape?
microtubules
How do the shapes of bacteria compare the diversity of shapes of the protists?
bacteria have cell walls, making them keep their shape, while most protists have either pellicles or cell membranes which can change shape.
What allows a cell to change its shape?
Changes in the organization of its cytoskeleton allow a cell to change shape.
How is the cell wall of bacteria different than a plant cell wall?
plant is in the shape of a rectangle, bacteria is like an oval
The cells of plants algae fungi and most bacteria get their shape from?
They get their shape from the cell wall
What does the cell wall do in a bacteria cell?
It protects and supports the cell.It also gives shape.
Is a bacteria consumer?
yes, they are grouped by the type of cell wall produced: a thick cell wall or a thinner cell wall. other group do not produce cell wall, this group is unique, because this allows them to change their shape one example may be: mycoplasma pneumonia.
How can bacteria be classified?
according to its shape,flagella as well as cell wall
What causes the shape of a red blood cell?
Spectrin
Why are Mycoplasmas pleomorphic?
Mycoplasmas can be described as pleomorphic because they do not have a rigid shape. They can stretch and change their shape because they lack murein or peptidoglycan in their cell walls. In addition, mycoplasmas are the smallest bacteria capable of self reproduction.
What causes the shape of a human cheek cell to be different from the shape of onion's epidermal cell?
plant cells have a cell wall - animal cells do not
What is the host cell for strep throat?
The cell that causes strep throat is a bacteria by the name of streptocacas.
