Statement(C)- Absence of cell wall is true for mycoplasma.
* Mycoplasma are a group of bacteria which are characterised by the absence of cell walls around their plasma membranes.
* It is due to this reason that they are resistant to beta-lactam antibiotics as such antibiotics act on the cell well synthesis pathway.
* Mycoplasma mycoides is the first mycoplasma to be recognised and isolated from the cattle.
* One speciality is that they can grow in cell-free culture medium.
