Solution

The correct option is A Archaebacteria
Peptidoglycan is a polymer that is present in the cell wall of most bacteria. It is also called as Murein. However, Archaebacteria are devoid of peptidoglycan in its wall. Instead, they are made up of the polysaccharide called pseudomurein.
Thus, the correct answer is 'Archaebacteria.'
