Answer: No, the answer is D (it gains electrons)

Explanation:

An object becomes negatively charged by gaining electrons, not by gaining protons. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom and are not easily gained or lost by an object. On the other hand, electrons are negatively charged particles that are more easily gained or lost by an object, leading to a net positive or negative charge. When an object gains electrons, it becomes negatively charged as the number of negatively charged particles (electrons) exceeds the number of positively charged particles (protons).
