Describe the structural features of the bacterial cell.

Bacteria have occupied a separate kingdom among living organisms for a reason. Their body has a lot of individual characteristics. For example, bacteria are made up of a single cell that performs all vital functions. It consists of a cell membrane, which has two layers, the cytoplasm has a viscous consistency, hereditary information is stored in a single chromosome, which is contained not in the nucleus, but in the nuclear substance. The ribosomes of bacteria are smaller than those of other representatives, and protein synthesis occurs on them.
