Solution

The correct option is B Mycoplasmas
  • The Mycoplasmas lack the cell wall and the mycoplasmas are facultative anaerobes, except for M. pneumonae.
  • They may be parasitic or saprophytic.
  • They are unaffected by the antibiotics that stop the cell wall synthesis.
  • Hence, the correct answer is option (C).
