Solution

The correct option is A 5
The thorax in cockroach bears two types of appendages: walking legs and wings. There are three pairs of jointed legs, a pair in each thoracic segment. Each leg is formed of five podomeres. They are coxa, trochanter, femur, tibia and tarsus.
So, the correct answer is '5'.
