Answer 1

The correct option is A Moth

Metamorphosis is the process of transformation from an immature form to an adult form in two or more distinct stages.

In complete metamorphosis, organism passes through four distinct stages in their life cycle. Moths pass through caterpillar and pupa stage while reaching from egg to adult stage, hence they undergo complete metamorphosis.

Grasshopper, silverfish and bed bug passes through the only nymph stage while reaching their adulthood from the egg stage. That is why they are examples of incomplete metamorphosis.

So, the correct option is 'Moth'.
