Gram-positive bacteria are bacteria that have thick cell walls which yield positive results in the Gram staining test. Lipoteichoic acid is a major component of the cell wall of gram-positive bacteria.

  • All bacteria indicated in the question can be classified by the Gram staining test:
  1. Actinomycetes are Gram-positive bacteria
  2. The genus Arthrobacter includes Gram-positive bacteria
  3. Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a Gram-negative bacterium
  4. Staphylococcus spp. are Gram-positive bacteria
  5. Bacillus spp are Gram-positive bacteria
  6. Mycobacterium spp. are Gram-positive bacteria

  • Prokaryotes can be divided into two domains: Bacteria and Archaea.

  • Gram staining is a method used to classify bacteria, but this method IS NOT USED to stain Archaea.

  • In consequence, I would not use the Gram test to stain Archaebacteria because Archaebacteria aren't bacteria (Option A is correct).

  • Archaebacteria belong to the Archaea domain.
