Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

The synonym of hemipteran is Rhynchota.
The present members of the order Hemiptera (sometimes referred to as Rhynchota) were historically placed into two orders, the so-called Homoptera and Heteroptera/Hemiptera, based on differences in wing structure and the position of the rostrum.
Hemiptera is an order of insects, commonly called true bugs, comprising over 80,000 species within the cicadas, aphids, planthoppers, leafhoppers, assassin bugs, bed bugs, and shield bugs. They range in size from 1 mm (0.04 in) to around 15 cm (6 in) and share a common arrangement of piercing-sucking mouthparts.
