Secondly it's the stobath for 10 seconds. Stopbath is diluted acetic acid. When film, with developer on it's surface, is immersed in stopbath, the acid halts the development process. Also contains a dye that turns purple when the acid is no longer active enough to be useful. Now it's the fix for 10 minutes. The purpose of the fix is to dissolve all silver crystals that have not been activated by the developer, and it hardens the emulsion.

If you don't wash you film chemical traces left on the film by improper washing will interfere with the quality of you prints and may damage your negatives. Finally the photo flo for 10 seconds.
