Solution

The correct option is C Egg ---> Wriggler ---> Mosquito
The process by which the young ones of an insect-like butterfly develop from larva into an adult through different stages of growth is called metamorphosis.

At first, a female mosquito lays an egg. The young one hatching from the egg is called wriggler. This wriggler later grows into a mosquito. This whole process is called metamorphosis of a mosquito.
