Textbook Question
Chapter 28, Problem 6A
Bacteria lack independent internal membrane systems, but are able to perform photosynthesis and respiration, both of which use membranes. They are able to perform these functions because
a. they actually have internal membranes, but only for these functions.
b. invaginations of the plasma membrane can provide an internal membrane surface.
c. they take place outside of the cell between the membrane and the cell wall.
d. they use protein-based structures to take the place of internal membranes.

Which of the following statement about the bacterial cell wall is INCORRECT?
a. The cell wall is relatively nonpermeable and restricts the passage of sugars and amino acids.
b. Gram-positive cells have more peptidoglycan in theircell walls than Gram-negative cells.
c. Gram-negative cells have a membrane both inside andoutside their cell walls.
d. The cell wall establishes a bacterium’s shape as a coccus,bacillus, or spirillum.
Members of the mycoplasma genus of bacteria do not have a cell wall for protection, existing with only a simple cell membrane made up of fatty acids and phospholipids. They cannot however, synthesize their own fatty acids. How is this possible?
A. They use host materials
B. They use peptidoglycan from other bacteria
C. They use anabolism as a way to create their outer membrane
D. They use amino acids to build their membranes
