E. Coli will appear pink in color under the microscope following gram staining

Explanation:

The Gram stain is a differential technique that is commonly used for the purposes of classifying bacteria. The staining technique distinguishes between two main types of bacteria (gram positive and gram negative) by imparting color on the cells.

Being Gram-negative bacteria, E. coli have an additional outer membrane that is composed of phospholipids and lipopolysaccharides. The presence lipopolysaccharides on the outer membrane of bacteria gives it an overall negative charge to the cell wall. Because of these properties, E. coli does not retain crystal violet during the Gram staining process.
