Explanation:

Lichen is the best species to determine the pollution of air. They are highly sensitive to pollution and will barely be found growing on trees or rock in regions where the air has been polluted.

Worms are also a good indicators of pollution in the soil. Polluted soils will have very few to no worms.

Adults of species in the order <u>Coleoptera</u> have 2 wings and the greatest variety of mouthparts.

<h3>Order Coleoptera</h3>

They have two pairs of wings:

  • One of the pair is the hard-shelled outer wings known as the “elytra”. These are not used for flying, but to protect the beetle's flying set of wings and its body as it crawls through narrow passages and tunnels in a tree.

  • The second set of wings is membranous and is folded under the elytra when not in use.
