The expected result is A. gram-positives will lyse and appears as debris; gram-negatives will lyse but more slowly B. gram-positives will lyse and appears as debris; gram-negatives will be unaffected. C. gram-positives will lyse and appears as debris; gram-negatives will lose cellular morphology and appea as cocci o. gram-negatives willyse and appears as debris; gram-positives will lose cellular morphology and appea as cocci E. gram-negatives will tyse and appears as debris; gram-positives will be unaffected
