Correct Answer: Mosquito


Solution : The correct option is mosquito.

Mosquitoes are sanguinivorous, indicating their feeding behavior involves extracting blood from various animals, including humans. This behavior is exclusive to female mosquitoes, as they rely on the proteins in blood for the development and reproduction of their eggs. In contrast, male mosquitoes predominantly nourish themselves with nectar and plant juices.
