Correct sequence of layers of bacterial cell envelope is
A
Cell membrane → glycocalyx → cell wall
B
Glycocalyx 
cell wall 
cell membrane
cell wall cell membrane C
Glycocalyx 
cell membrane 
cell wall
cell membrane cell wall D
Cell wall → glycocalyx → cell membrane.
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Bacterial cell envelope consists of three components; glycocalyx, cell wall and cell membrane. Glycocalyx is the outermost mucilage layer of the cell envelope. Cell Wall is rigid solid covering, which provides shape and structural support to the cell. Cell wall lies between plasma membrane and glycocalyx.
