Answer 1

The correct option is A True

$\bullet$ Mosquitoes lay their eggs in still water bodies.
$\bullet$ Baby mosquitoes which come out of the eggs are called larvae. They stay in water bodies until they are grown-ups.
$\bullet$ To decrease the population of mosquitoes these larvae should be killed.
$\bullet$ One way of killing them is by adding fishes into these water bodies.
$\bullet$ These fishes eat up the larvae. Hence, they help in decreasing the population of mosquitoes.
