None of these.

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The cell wall of bacteria is primarily composed of peptidoglycan (also known as murein or mucopeptide),which consists of $N$-acetylglucosamine $(NAG)$ and $N$-acetylmuramic acid $(NAM)$ linked by peptide chains.The cell wall of fungi is primarily composed of chitin,which is a polymer of $N$-acetylglucosamine $(NAG)$.Since bacteria contain peptidoglycan and fungi contain chitin,they do not share the same cell wall composition. While both contain $N$-acetylglucosamine as a structural component,the overall chemical structure and composition are distinct. Therefore,none of the provided statements accurately describe a shared structural feature.
