The substance that helps keep the integrity of the bacterial cell wall intact is known as the peptidoglycan. Others also refer to is it as murein or mucopeptide. The bacterial cell wall is necessary for survival because of the high internal pressure present inside of bacteria. Under normal conditions, if the cell wall is removed the bacterial cell will burst.

The peptidoglycan is a layer that can be used to distinguish gram positive bacteria from gram negative ones. G(+) bacteria have a thick layer of this while G(-) have a thinner ones.

If a Killer whale is feeding at the fourth trophic level, how much phytoplankton mass is required to add each gram of new mass t
Ksivusya [100]
In order to add one gram of mass, the whale must consume a sufficient amount of energy. The energy transferred to the fourth trophic level is 0.1⁴ = 0.0001
We divide the mass to be gained by the energy obtained per unit mass, to find the total mass to be eaten:
1 / 0.0001 = 10,000 grams of phytoplankton must be consumed to add one gram of mass.
