Question
Chapter 23.1, Problem 1.4CC
Summary Introduction
A fascinating characteristic that is observed in the members of Actinobacteria are its cell wall. They contain many distinct kinds of cell wall. Taxonomical variation is observed in color and morphology. The asexual spores are produced by most of the members, whereas, some species produce sporangiospores.
