Best Answer

Hydrolysates of cell-wall preparations of more than 60 strains of corynebacteria, lactobacilli, streptococci, staphylococci and other Gram-positive cocci have been examined by paper chromatography. A very high proportion of the amino acid moiety of the cell-wall complex could in each case be accounted for in terms of 3 or 4 of the amino acids alanine, glutamic acid, lysine, diaminopimelic acid, aspartic acid and glycine. These were associated with varying combinations of sugars and amino sugars. In general, each bacterial genus appears to have a characteristic pattern of cell-wall components, particularly in regard to the amino acids present

How do bacteria plants and fungi help to extract copper?

Bacteria plants extract copper by absorbing its chemical properties. The same goes along with fungi but they absorb the copper and use that as a reproduction synthetic. Bacteria plants can also repel the copper if the chemical properties to them is not suffice or sufficient. First, bacteria will explore the copper and its chemical properties and search for the right chemical composition to support the plant. Then, once the pathogen/virus finds the right chemical composition, they absorb the chemical composition in the copper and return to the plant. Finally, they repel the composition from their bodies into the plant which makes it suffice to create glucose.
