Most prokaryotic cells, particularly the bacterial cells, have a chemically complex cell envelope, where:
| 1. | the outermost layer is the cell wall |
| 2. | all three layers act together as a single protective unit |
| 3. | the cell membrane staining properties make some bacteria Gram positive |
| 4. | carbohydrate is the biomolecule absent in all three layers |
