(B) The life cycle of insects exhibiting complete metamorphosis (holometabolous development) includes four distinct stages: egg,larva,pupa,and adult.Among the given options,the Housefly ($Musca$ $domestica$) and the Honey Bee $(Apis)$ both undergo complete metamorphosis and possess a pupal stage.However,in standard biology multiple-choice questions,the Housefly is the most classic example of an insect with a distinct pupal stage in its life cycle.Cockroaches undergo paurometabolous development (nymph stage,no pupa),and Earthworms do not have a pupal stage as they are annelids.
