Solution

The correct option is B help in removal of nitrogenous wastes
Malphigian tubules are present at the junction of midgut & hindgut. Excretion in cockroaches is performed by them. They absorb nitrogenous wastes from the coelom and convert it into uric acid which is excreted out through the hindgut.
