Pre-Lab Questions 1. What determines if a bacterial cell is Gram-positive or Gram-negative? (5 points) Amount and location of the peptidoglycan molecule in the prokaryotic cell wall determines whether a bacterial cell is Gram-positive or Gram-negative. 2. In this lab, both viruses and prions were introduced as acellular organisms. Do some research and describe

discuss why it might be important for a researcher or a hospital technician to be able to differentiate between Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Using either a textbook or a reputable online resource, research some of the typical characteristics of bacteria, and discuss why it might be important for a researcher or a hospital technician to
Give a scenario in which their use would be appropriate. (5 points) So far in this lab, you have used one type of simple stain(Crystal violet) and one type of negative stain (Nigrosin), yet there are many other simple and negative dyes available. Pick one simple dye and one negative dye, and discuss how those
