Answer:
Before bacteria can be stained, a smear of bacteria must be made on a slide and heat fixed. ... Heat fixing denatures bacterial enzymes, preventing them from digesting cell parts, which causes the cell to break, a process called autolysis. The heat also enhances the adherence of bacterial cells to the slide.
