Mosquitoes don’t have teeth

True

False
This claim is FALSE. Mosquitoes DO have teeth - specifically, they have a specialized proboscis (mouthpart) that contains 6 stylets which function like teeth. These needle-like structures include two mandibles and two maxillae that are serrated and tooth-like, allowing the mosquito to cut through skin. Female mosquitoes use these to pierce skin and locate blood vessels. So the statement "Mosquitoes don't have teeth" is incorrect. However, the claimed answer is B (False), which means the question is saying this statement IS false (i.e., mosquitoes DO have teeth). Wait - let me re-read... The statement says "Mosquitoes don't have teeth" and B is marked as correct (False). This means the statement IS False, meaning mosquitoes DO have teeth. That's correct! So B is right.
