  • A.N-acetyl muramic acid
  • B.murein mucopeptide
  • C.N acetylglucosamine
  • D.meso-diaminopimelic acid

Answer: B

Correct answer: murein mucopeptide

Peptidoglycan is also called murein (from murus, a wall) or murein mucopeptide. NAM and NAG are its two sugars, and diaminopimelic acid one of the amino acids of its peptide side chains - components rather than alternative names for the polymer.
