Explanation:

option c

Answer 2

Cell envelope of bacteria is composed of (c) outermost glycocalyx followed by cell wall and plasma membrane.

Explanation:

• The cell envelope is a combination of the cell membrane, cell wall, and an outer membrane if it is present.

• The bacteria cell envelope is a complex multilayered structure that serves to protect these organisms from their unpredictable and often hostile environment.

• Usually, this envelope is a characteristic of prokaryotes like bacteria. It comprises the inner cell wall and the cell wall of a bacterium.

• The cell envelope provides structural integrity to the cell. In prokaryotes, it protects the cell from the internal turgor pressure caused due to a high concentration of macromolecules inside the cell.

The cell envelope is composed of the cell wall, cell membrane and an outer membrane (glycocalyx).
