Expert Solution
Step 1

The gram bacteria are of two types : gram positive bacteria and gram negative bacteria.

A lipopolysaccharide-containing outer membrane surrounds the peptidoglycan cell wall that encases gram-negative bacteria. are unable to retain the crystal violet stain after the decolorization stage because alcohol destroys their outer membrane, making their cell walls more porous and preventing them from doing so. Between the inner and outer cell membranes, their thin peptidoglycan layer takes up the counterstain safranin and turns pink.

In contrast to Gram-negative bacteria, which have an outer membrane, gram-positive bacteria have layers of peptidoglycan that are many times thicker. they stain purple because they have taken up the test's crystal violet stain. the stain is retained in the bacterial cell wall's thick peptidoglycan layer even after it has been rinsed from the rest of the sample during the test's decolorization phase.
