Solution

The correct option is B

Beetle


Beetles are insects and like most insects, they have two pairs of wings: forewings and hindwings. In beetles, forewings are modified into hard coverings called elytra. The thin hindwings are kept under elytra at rest. Beetle takes the elytra out of the way in order to fly. Beetles, like other insects, also have legs. They have three pairs of legs and hence can walk too.
