EXP:

  • Chemically,cell wall is composed of mucopeptide (peptidoglycan or murein ) scaffolding formed by N acetyl glucosamine and Nacetyl muramic acid molecules alternating in chains, which are cross linked by peptide chains.
  • Note - option ‘b’ is also partially correct as teichoic acid is present in the cell wall of gram positive bacteria but not in gram negative bacteria.
