1. Whirligig beetle
2. Larva
3. Idk what you're looking for so I'll say complete metamorphosis.

3. Define cone of depression.
1. I believe that it's a crane fly larvae (due to the wispy tail)
2.True
3. I'm not too sure, but maybe it's when the ground settles inward due to some man made structure?

1. Correct
2. False 3. An area's water table is lowered when water is pumped excessively, creating a dip in the water table known as the cone of depression, also shown here.
