Answer:
Bacteria that are helpful in one place may be harmful in another.
What information in the text supports this statement?
A Heliobacter pylori is a bacterium that causes gastritis (irritation or
inflammation of the stomach lining) and peptic ulcers, diseases which were once
thought to be caused by too much acid.
B Streptococcus salivarius appears to help prevent tooth decay in the mouth
but can be dangerous to people with weakened immune systems if it gets
outside the mouth.
Bacillus subtilis releases toxic chemicals to kill fungus, possibly including
Trichophyton interdigitale and other species that cause athlete's foot.
D Skin, which is our interface with the world, supports a large number of the
human body's most diverse populations of bacteria, including Bacillus subtilis.

Answer:
In acid-fast staining, carbon fuchsin is used as a primary stain which dissolves the mycolic acid present in the cell wall of <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis </em>and penetrates through it which results in staining <em>Mycobacterium</em> red.
Staphylococcus aureus cell wall does not contain mycolic acid so carbon fuchsin does not penetrate its cell wall, therefore, it becomes colorless after destaining with acid alcohol.
After destaining step methylene blue is added to stain non-acid-fast bacteria blue. So if I mistakenly forgot to use methylene blue during the procedure <em>Mycobacterium smegmatis</em> will appear red due to carbon fuchsin present in their cell wall and S<em>taphylococcus aureus</em> will appear colorless because it is destained.
This is referring to electronegativity!
