What is true about German roaches?

• A. There Are 12 Eggs in a Sac
• B. Attaches Eggs in Corners
• C. Has 6-8 Egg Sacs in a Lifetime
• D. Fastens Eggs in Cabinets

Answer: (C)

German cockroaches reproduce by the female producing several egg cases (oothecae) over her lifetime. Each egg case contains a substantial number of eggs, typically around 30–40, and a female can produce multiple of these during her life—roughly six to eight in many cases. That makes the statement about having 6–8 egg sacs in a lifetime the most accurate reflection of their reproductive potential.

The other thoughts mix up how many eggs are in a single egg case or focus on where the eggs are deposited rather than the overall reproductive output. For example, an egg case isn’t only 12 eggs, and while roaches may lay or deposit egg cases in hidden spots like cabinets, the key point tested here is how many egg cases a female generally produces in her lifetime.
