Chitin. Just as peptidoglycan is a structural component of Eubacteria cell walls, chitin is a structural component of fungal cell walls. Chitin is a long-chain polymer of N-acetylglucosamine and provides strength and rigidity to the cell wall, similar to the role of peptidoglycan in Eubacteria.

A prokaryotic organism carries out photosynthesis How can you tell if it is a member of Eubacteria or Archaebacteria?

You can distinguish between Eubacteria and Archaebacteria by examining the composition of their cell walls. Eubacteria have peptidoglycan in their cell walls, while Archaebacteria lack peptidoglycan and have unique cell wall structures. The presence or absence of peptidoglycan can provide clues to the classification of a prokaryotic organism carrying out photosynthesis.

Eubacterial cell wall is made of peptidoglycan.


Do eukaryotic organisms have pepidoglycan walls?

No, peptidoglycan cell walls are characteristic of Eubacteria, which are prokaryotes.


What characteristics differentiate the kingdom fungi from the kingdom eubacteria?

Eubacteria are prokaryotic. They also have a complex metabolism. They cannot live in harsh, or ever-changing environments. They are unicellular organisms, and they are the most common form of bacteria in the world. Some eubacteria are autotrophs while others are heterotrophs.


What makes up the cell wall?

In Gram positive and negative eubacteria it is peptidoglycan. In plants it is cellulose.
