Solution
The answer is the third one (or C): 3.
Explanation:
Incomplete metamorphosis in insects involves three main growth stages:
Egg
Nymph
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.
