Monera Flashcards
What is the composition of cell wall in eubacteria and archaebacteria
Eubacteria - Peptidoglycan
Archaebacteria - complex polypeptide and complex polysaccharides
What is the composition of cell membrane in eubacteria and archaebacteria
Eubacteria - unbranched lipid and protein
Archaebacteria - branched lipid and protein

What are the two types of respiration present in monera? What are it’s subtypes?
Aerobic (need oxygen for survival)
Divided in obligate aerobes and facultative anaerobes
Anaerobic (do not need oxygen for survival)
Divided in obligate anaerobes and facultative aerobes
What are facultative anaerobes
Mainly aerobe but optionally anaerobes
Eg. Mycoplasma, heterocyst of cyanobacteria
What are facultative aerobes
Mainly anaerobes but optionally aerobes
