Answer:
The rapid decolorization with ethanol or acetone
and counterstaining with safranin
When a decolorizer such as alcohol or acetone is added, it interacts with the lipids of the cell membrane. A gram-negative cell loses its outer lipopolysaccharide membrane, and the inner peptidoglycan layer is left exposed: when safranin is added they will turn red. Conversely, gram-positives retain the Cristal violet and will color in purple
The endosymbiotic theory states that eukaryotic cells might have evolved from prokaryotic cells through a close realtionship.
