Explanation / Answer

answer 1

egg, larval, pupal, adult

because this is a Tife cycle of Drosophila melanogaster which comprises these four successive stages,

Answer 2

use black mouth hooks to eat in larval stage

because Larvae use their cephalopharyngeal sclerites (mouth hooks) to eats almost continuously

Answer 3

All of the above

Because all the features above suits for drosophila having life cycle which only takes about 12 days to complete at room temperature & easily available

Answer 4

All of the above

Because the study of this model organism for genetic investigations for various disorders in human & other organism
