Expert Solution
Step 1

Gram staining is a technique which is used to identify the bacterial cell type, whether it is gram positive cell or gram negative cell. This technique is based on the presence of peptodoglycons in the cell wall. Gram positive has thick cell wall and have more peptidoglycons whereas gram negative has thin cell wall and less peptidoglycons.
