The question is incomplete as it does not have the option which are:

-acid-fast

-DAPI

-lipo

-Gram

Answer:

Acid-fast  staining

Explanation:

Acid-fast staining is the technique used to stain and identify the species of the mycobacterium.

During the acid-fast staining, the carbolfuchsin stain is used to color the bacteria as carbolfuchsin solubilizes the lipid of the bacterial wall and the pink stain enters the cell. When these cells are treated with the methylene blue counterstain, the mycobacterium due to the presence of thick cell wall does not allow the entry of the methylene blue as a result of which they appear red o pink.

Thus, acid-fast staining is correct.
