In bacteria the cell wall is made of peptidoglycans; among protists, algae have cell wall made of cellulose; in fungi, the cell wall is made of chitin (the same substance that makes the exoskeleton of arthropods); in plants, the cell wall is made of cellulose.

Bacterial cell walls are different from the cell walls of plants and fungi which are made of cellulose and chitin, respectively. The cell wall of bacteria is also distinct from that of Archaea, which do not contain peptidoglycan.

Are protists and bacteria alike?

In one way, yes. Both bacteria and most protists are single-celled organisms. However, protists are more genetically and internally similar to animals and plants, because they have a cell nucleus, which bacteria do not have.


How are some protists like plants?

Bacteria and plants are alike in that some bacteria (though not all) and all plants are autotrophs. Protists and plants are alike in that both are eukaryotes, meaning their cells have a defined segregated nucleus.
