The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Metathoracic or hindwings are thin, membranous, transparent, broad, delicate and are used in flight. They are kept folded like a fan under the tegmina, when at rest. Movements are due to special muscles attached to wing bases which work at a very high speed.
