The answer is the third one (or C): 3.

Explanation: Incomplete metamorphosis in insects involves three main growth stages:

  1. Egg
  2. Nymph
  3. Adult

In this type of metamorphosis, the insect does not go through a pupal stage, which is present in complete metamorphosis. The nymph stage typically resembles a smaller version of the adult but without fully developed wings and reproductive organs. As the nymph grows, it molts several times before reaching the adult stage.
