Question

Insects are characterized by:
Options
A 3 pairs of legs
Correct Answer
B Two pairs of antennae
C Wings on body
D Large sized eggs
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Insects are characterized by having three pairs of legs (6 legs total) attached to the thorax. This is a defining feature of the class Insecta. While many insects have wings (not all), two pairs of antennae are characteristic of crustaceans (insects have one pair), and large-sized eggs are not a defining characteristic of insects.

Hint

Count the number of legs in any adult insect.
