Vedclass · Answer

(B) Statement $I$ is correct: Mycoplasma are the smallest known living cells,typically ranging from $0.1 \ \mu m$ to $0.3 \ \mu m$ in size. Due to their extremely small size,they can easily pass through bacterial-proof filters (which usually have a pore size of $1 \ \mu m$ or less).Statement $II$ is incorrect: Mycoplasma are unique among bacteria because they completely lack a cell wall. This absence of a cell wall makes them naturally resistant to antibiotics like penicillin that target cell wall synthesis.Therefore,Statement $I$ is correct and Statement $II$ is incorrect.

Column-$I$	Column-$II$
$(A)$ Halophiles	$(p)$ Gram-positive bacteria
$(B)$ Firmicutes	$(q)$ Hot springs habitat
$(C)$ Methanogens	$(r)$ Gram-negative bacteria
$(D)$ Spirochetes	$(s)$ Photosynthetic bacteria
$(E)$ Thermoacidophiles	$(t)$ Extremely salty areas habitat
	$(u)$ Responsible for biogas production

Given below are two statements:
Statement $I$: Mycoplasma can pass through less than $1 \ \mu m$ filter size.
Statement $II$: Mycoplasma are bacteria with cell wall.
In the light of the above statements,choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
