Solution

The correct option is B Tracheal system
Maggots breathe through tracheal system. They exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide between their tissues and the air by a system of air-filled tubes called as tracheae. The air enters into the tubes through a row of holes present along the insect's abdomen known as spiracles.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
