Explain how differences in cell wall structures of bacteria


Assignment: Bacteria Experiment

• Write a lab report about the "Bacterial Morphology and Staining Techniques" lab kit experiment in which you do the following:

o Explain how the differences in cell wall structures of gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria cause them to stain differently with the Gram stain.
