Which States Are True About The Differences Between Gram-Positive And Gram-Negative Bacteria? Question 1 Options: A) Gram-Positive Have A Thick Layer Of Peptidoglycan, While Gram-Negative Have A Thin Layer Of Peptidoglycan Surrounded By The Outer Membrane. B) Gram-Positive Cell Walls Have Techoic Acids And Wall-Teichoic Acids, While Gram-Negative Cell Walls Have An Outer Membrane Embedded With Lipopolysaccharide (Lps). C) Gram-Positive Cell Walls Are Sensitive To Penicillin And Lysozyme Since These Target Peptidoglycan, While Gram-Negative Cell Walls Are Resistant To Penicillin And Lysozyme Due To The Outer Membrane. D) All Statements Are Correct. However, they have a thinner peptidoglycan cell wall. The cell walls of bacteria have a rigid layer composed of peptidoglycan that is the main source of strength of the wall (madigan et al., 2003).
The outer membrane is composed of lipoproteins, phospholipids, and lps. Gram negative bacteria have an outer membrane that loses the purple color. This means they do not hold the blue dye used in gram testing and do.
