Answer : Option A
Explaination / Solution:

Mycoplasma is a genus of bacteria that lack a cell wall around their cell membrane. Without a cell wall, they are unaffected by many common antibiotics such as penicillin or other beta-lactam antibiotics that target cell wall synthesis. Mycoplasma species are the smallest bacterial cells yet discovered,can survive without oxygen, and come in various shapes. For example, M. genitalium is flask-shaped.
