A. (a)−(iii),(b)−(i),(c)−(iv),(d)−(ii)( a ) - ( iii ) , ( b ) - ( i ) , ( c ) - ( iv ) , ( d ) - ( ii )

Step-by-step solution

Anal cerci: A pair of anal cerci arises from the lateral sides of the 10th{10}^{th} segment in both males and females. It has a sensitivity to sound & vibrations.

Gizzard/Proventriculus: It consists of six chitinous teeth and helps in the grinding of food materials. The outer membrane is thick to help in grinding.

At the junction between gizzard and midgut, 6−86 - 8 finger-like tubular structures are present called hepatic caeca. These hepatic caeca help in the secretion of gastric juice and absorption.

Spiracles: The respiratory system in a cockroach opens to the outside by 1010 pairs of lateral openings called spiracles. 22 pairs of spiracles occur in the thorax and 88 pairs in the abdomen.
