    The correct answer is b. False

    Explanation:

    TB patient is affected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis and it's cell wall contains mycolic acid. This is a waxy coating which makes it's surface impermeable to gram stain. So it cannot be stain by gram staining and can be seen violet or pink after gram staining.

    So the correct answer is b. false
