Solution

The correct option is D Their larvae feed on a food different from that of the adult.
The larvae of a moth feeds on leaves - while the adult moth and butterflies feed on nectar and fluids from various plants
larvae of frog or tadpole feeds on algae and planktons - the adult frog is carnivorous feeding on insects
larvae of mosquitoes too feed on algae and planktons - where as adult female mosquitoes are sanguivores whereas males feed on plant sap
So, the correct answer is 'Their larvae feed on a food different from that of the adult.'
