In some locations, the cell membrane forms internal folds in the cytoplasm called mesosomes.
Denying all claims of having functional role, recent studies have shown that mesosomes are artifacts of preparation, resulting from stain fixation.

A mesosome is the term used for a folded-in place found on the side of a bacteria that has been prepared as a slide. This structure appears when bacterial cells have been fixed to a slide by chemical means. It is not seen when the same types of cells are frozen instead.
mesosomes are the infoldings in the plasma membrane,these are rich in enzymes that helps to perform functions like cellular respiration,DNA replication,secretion of glycocalyx and cell division(most imporatant function;it increases the surface area of the cell membrane
these are vesicular lamellar or tubular pockets formed by the invagination of the cell membrane . These structure are more prevalent in gram +ve bacteria .Due to presence of respiratory enzymes and in the absence of mitochondria , mesosomes are said to be respiratory in function .
No function. These are just invaginations that are caused by preparing bacteria for electron microscopy.
Ribosomes
no
The similarities in appearance between these structures are pretty clear. The mitochondrion is a double-membrane organelle, with a smooth outer membrane and an inner membrane which protrudes into the interior of the mitochondrion in folds called cristae. This membrane is very similar in appearance to the prokaryotic plasma membrane with its mesosomes.
there are variations of anthrax that are viral and bacterial most anthrax is bacterial
why bacterial decomposition is important
Ribosomes
Cristae are the folds formed by the inner membrane in mitochondria, whereas mesosomes are essentially the same thing but are in bacterial cells.
no
Yes it is in prokariyotes. It is the respiratory organelle.
dno ask a vet internet don't tell u lol!!

Bacteria cells being readies to be viewed under an electron microscope. Invaginations of the cell wall that are just artifacts of the preparation process.
archea and bacterial
there are variations of anthrax that are viral and bacterial most anthrax is bacterial
Bacterial cidal kills the bacteria, while bacterial static only stops it from growing and reproducing.
bacterial..you can't really cure viral infections, only bacterial infections..hence anti-bacterial as antibiotics for a bacterial infection
what are examples of bacterial variation?
