The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Metamorphosis**: Metamorphosis refers to the process of transformation that an organism undergoes from its immature form to its adult form. It typically involves several stages. 2. **Identifying Types of Metamorphosis**: There are two main types of metamorphosis: - **Complete Metamorphosis (Holometabolism)**: This involves four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. - **Incomplete Metamorphosis (Hemimetabolism)**: This involves three stages: egg, nymph, and adult. 3. **Metamorphosis in Cockroaches**: Cockroaches undergo a type of metamorphosis that includes three stages: - **Stage 1**: Egg - **Stage 2**: Nymph (which resembles a smaller version of the adult but lacks wings) - **Stage 3**: Adult 4. **Conclusion**: Since cockroaches develop through three stages, they exhibit **incomplete metamorphosis**, also known as **hemimetabolism**. 5. **Final Answer**: The type of metamorphosis that occurs in cockroaches is called **hemimetabolus**. ---
