In the image, we see a wasp, with several parts of its body labeled. These parts can have several functions, but they all have a primary one, in this case, we are talking about defense, which is the primary function of the stinger because is not used in the regular life of the wasp, but when is threatened by other organisms.

This means the right answer would be A, the stinger.
