Solution

The correct option is A True
Cockroaches walk and climb as well
as fly in the air. They have three pairs
of legs. These help in walking. There are two pairs of wings attached
to the body behind head. The
cockroaches have distinct muscles —
those near the legs move the legs for
walking. The body muscles move the
wings when the cockroach flies.
Hence the given statement is true.
