Answer:

Circulatory and Longitudinal

Explanation:

The earthworm composed of two sets of muscles which are circular and longitudinal muscles. Circular muscles are thin layers of muscles located beneath the skin and they run around the earthworm’s body. Under the circular muscles is a thicker layer of longitudinal muscles which run from anterior end to posterior end of the earthworm's body. The earthworm becomes longer and thinner on contraction of the circular muscles and when the longitudinal muscles contract the worm becomes shorter and fatter. Therefore, on alternate contracting and expanding of muscles, the earthworm moves.

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:

Actinomycetes are Gram-positive bacteria
The genus Arthrobacter includes Gram-positive bacteria
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is a Gram-negative bacterium
Staphylococcus spp. are Gram-positive bacteria
Bacillus spp are Gram-positive bacteria
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).
