Answer all of the following true/false questions:  Please use A (True) and B (False) for your answers. Antibiotics can be used to treat viral infections. Gram positive bacteria stain pink; Gram negative bacteria stain purple when using the Gram- staining technique. Gram staining color results are based on differences in the bacterial cell wall composition. Peptidoglycan is a glycoprotein found in all forms of life. Penicillin only works in bacterial cells that are undergoing mitosis. Vaccines cause autism and other severe developmental difficulties. Effective hand washing (in warm water, with soap, and for a time frame of 2 minutes) can prevent most common infections.
