Answer 1

Answer #1

It would be gram negative bacteria because gram negative bacteria have outer membrane which is absent in gram positive bacteria.

This outer membrane of cell wall is made of LPS and it acts as endotoxin. Endotoxin is one of the virulent factors for Pathogenicity.

It also protects cell from antibiotics, detergent and enzymes like lysozyme.
