Which of the following insects have sucking mouth parts?

Aphids possess specialized sucking mouthparts that allow them to extract plant sap, which provides them with necessary nutrients. These mouthparts are adapted for piercing the plant's surface, enabling the aphids to feed effectively and thrive on various plants. This feeding behavior not only supports their growth but also makes them significant pests, as their feeding can lead to plant stress, stunted growth, or even death.

Beetles, on the other hand, have chewing mouthparts designed for biting and grinding food rather than sucking. Termites, while they can exhibit some types of feeding that may involve consuming wood or cellulose, primarily have chewing mouthparts. Bees, similarly, do not have sucking mouthparts but possess a long proboscis designed for collecting nectar, which they then consume or use to make honey. Each of these groups has developed mouthpart structures that are adapted to their specific feeding strategies, with sucking mouthparts being a defining characteristic of aphids.
