Question

In cockroach, wings are not present in____________.

• A. Prothorax
• B. Mesothorax
• C. Metathorax
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A Prothorax

Prothorax is the anterior segment of the thorax of an insect, not bearing any wings.

The prothorax is the foremost of the three segments in the thorax of an insect, and bears the first pair of legs.

Its principal sclerites are the pronotum, the prosternum, and the propleuron on each side.

The prothorax never bears wings in extant insects, though some fossil groups possessed wing-like projections.

So, the correct answer is 'Prothorax'.
