5 0

Answer:

A combination of polypeptides and modified sugars that enclose the entire eubacteria.

Explanation:

A component of bacterial cell walls called peptidoglycan (PGN) promotes innate immune responses. Peptidoglycan, a polymer made of sugars and amino acids, creates the cell wall of the majority of bacteria by producing a layer that resembles a mesh outside the plasma membrane. N-acetylglucosamine and N-acetylmuramic acid residues are alternated in the sugar component. forms a saccules in the cell wall of most bacteria that resembles a bag. It controls bacterial cell shape and is crucial for osmotic stability. A heteropolymer made up of glycan strands carrying small peptides is known as a peptidoglycan.

Increase or decrease ?
Radda [10]

Answer:

Increase

Explanation:

Crossing over is the process by which genetic information is exchanged between two homologous chromosomes

Independent assortment describes the way in which traits are inherited: i.e. different alleles on different chromosomes are inherited independently of one another (in a simple example, a tall green plant can cross with a yellow small plant to make a tall yellow plant or a small green plant - the two traits aren't inherited together.

Therefore, both of these increase the amount of variety present in the gamete, as they both generate new combinations of alleles to pass on to the next generation.
