Which statement regarding anal cerci and anal style in cockroach is correct?
Anal cerci are absent but anal styles are present in male.
Anal cerci are absent and anal styles are present in female.
Anal styles are absent and anal cerci are present in male.
Anal styles are absent and anal cerci are present in female.
Correct Answer :
D. Anal styles are absent and anal cerci are present in female.
In cockroaches, males bear a pair of short, thread like anal styles which are absent in females. In both sexes, the 10th segment bears a pair of jointed filamentous structures called anal cerci.
