Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Fluid feeders obtain nutrients by sucking fluids from living hosts (e.g., mosquito, aphid, leech) or from flowers (e.g., butterfly). A frog is a carnivore that typically captures and eats whole prey, such as insects, making it not primarily a fluid feeder.
