Ques. 1NEET 2016 (Phase 2)

Select the wrong statement-

  1. Pili and fimbriae are mainly involved in motility of bacterial cells
  2. Mycoplasma is a wall-less microorganism
  3. Bacterial cell wall is made up of peptidoglycan
  4. Cyanobacteria lack flagellated cells.

Answer

(1) Pili and fimbriae are mainly involved in motility of bacterial cells

Solution

As per NCERT, besides the flagellum, pili and fimbriae are also surface structures of the bacteria but do not play a role in motility; pili are elongated tubular structures and fimbriae are small bristle-like fibres that help some bacteria attach to rocks in streams and to host tissues. ⇒ Statement (1) is wrong.

∵ Mycoplasma completely lacks a cell wall; the bacterial cell wall is made of peptidoglycan; cyanobacteria have no flagellated cells.

Answer: (1)
