In a MerCruiser ignition system, the purple wire is typically connected to the positive post of the coil. This wire carries the voltage from the ignition switch to the coil, enabling it to generate a spark for the engine. It's important to ensure proper connections and functionality, as a faulty wire can lead to ignition problems. Always refer to the specific wiring diagram for your engine model for accurate information.

Do gram-positive cells carry a net positive charge?

Gram-positive does not refer to a positive charge, but to the purple color of the stain. Gram-negative bacteria do not retain the purple dye and are instead red in color.

What colors do gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria stain?

Gram positive are purple. Just remember Positive+Purple. Gram negative are a reddish color from the safranin. After using the crystal violet, the grams iodine acts as a mordant to hold color on cell wall. When using the alcohol, the gram positive will stay purple while the gram negative will become clear. This is due to the outer cell wall of the gram negative specimen (lipopolysaccharide) basically being stripped by the alcohol, so now you have a clear specimen again. When you add the safranin it sticks to the gram negative cell wall, hince the red/pink color.

On the basis of gram reaction only can you distinguish between staphylococcus and streptococcus?

If the Gram stain is properly done, and based on color alone: - you CANNOT distinguish between Staphylococcus (positive/purple) and Streptococcus (positive/purple) - you CAN distinguish between Staphylococcus (positive/purple) and Neisseria (negative/red) - you CANNOT distinguish between Escherichia (negative/red) and Proteus (negative/red) - you CAN distinguish between Escherichia (negative/red) and Bacillus (positive/purple) Gram positives will stain purple because of the retention of the dye (crystal violet) in their thick peptidoglycan cell walls. On the other hand, Gram negatives have a thin cell wall and cannot retain the purple stain, so when they are counterstained, they will appear red


Is S epidermidis gram negative or gram positive?

S. epidermidis is a Gram-positive bacterium. It appears purple when subjected to a Gram stain due to its thick peptidoglycan layer in the cell wall.
