the cell wall gives the bacteria its shape and aside that protects the bacteria from bursting due to high osmotic pressure that can be built in the cell..
What else can I help you with?
Which types of cells definitely contain cell walls?
Plant cells and bacterial cells definitely contain cell walls.
What two cells have cell walls?
Various organisms have cell walls, including plants, fungi, algae and bacteria.
Do animal cells have cell walls, and if so, what is the function of these cell walls in animal cells?
Animal cells do not have cell walls. The function of cell walls in plant cells is to provide structural support and protection, but animal cells rely on other structures like the cytoskeleton for support and protection.
What is a bacterial genus that has waxy mycolic acid in the cell walls?
Mycobacterium is a bacterial genus that has waxy mycolic acid in the cell walls. This acid helps make the cell walls impermeable to many substances, contributing to the resistance of the bacterial cells.
Do all cells have a cell wall?
No, only plant cells and most bacterial cells.
Do bacterial plant and animal cells have walls?
only plant and bacterial cells have walls
Which types of cells definitely contain cell walls?
Plant cells and bacterial cells definitely contain cell walls.
Do bacterial cells have cell walls or cell memebranes?
they are prokaryotic and therefore only have a cell membrane only plant cells have cell walls
What two cells have cell walls?
Various organisms have cell walls, including plants, fungi, algae and bacteria.
What is the wall of an animal cell called?
Animal cells do not have walls. Only plant cells, fungal cells, and bacterial cells have walls.
Do animal cells have cell walls, and if so, what is the function of these cell walls in animal cells?
Animal cells do not have cell walls. The function of cell walls in plant cells is to provide structural support and protection, but animal cells rely on other structures like the cytoskeleton for support and protection.
What is the cell walls function for a animal?
Animals do not have cell walls, animals cells with cell walls do not exist.
What is a bacterial genus that has waxy mycolic acid in the cell walls?
Mycobacterium is a bacterial genus that has waxy mycolic acid in the cell walls. This acid helps make the cell walls impermeable to many substances, contributing to the resistance of the bacterial cells.
Do all cells have a cell wall?
No, only plant cells and most bacterial cells.
Why pencilin does not harm human cells?
Penicillin targets the cell walls of bacteria, which are different from human cells. Human cells do not have cell walls like bacteria do, so penicillin does not harm them. This allows penicillin to selectively target bacterial cells while leaving human cells unharmed.
How are cell walls important to bacterial cells?
Cell walls provide structural support and protection to bacterial cells, helping them maintain their shape and resist changes in osmotic pressure. They also serve as a barrier to prevent harmful substances from entering the cell. Additionally, cell walls play a crucial role in bacterial cell division and attachment to surfaces.
Are all cell walls of plant cells and prokaryotic cells are structurally identical?
In general most prokaryotes do have cells walls. However, there are some prokaryotes such as the bacterial genus Mycoplasma that do not posses cell walls.
