Glycocalyx is a carbohydrate-enriched coating that covers the outside of many

eukaryotic cells and prokaryotic cells, particularly bacteria.
The DNA of most bacteria is contained in a single circular molecule called
plasmid.

Fungi

Eukaryotic

Multicellular

Virus

Viral structure contains:

1- Nucleic acid genome

Microbiology 7
 2- Protein capsid that covers the genome
3- Lipid envelope

Nucleic genome + Capsid → Nucleocapsid

The entire contact virus is called the virion
