metamorphosis of Butterfly
Metamorphosis
is the name for rapid transformation of larva into and adult that occurs in
some insects. The butterfly goes through four stages to become adult butterfly,
the process can be called metamorphosis.
There
are 4 stages:
1. Eggs
:
Female butterfly put their eggs on
plants to enable caterpillar (later stage) to get the food from plant leafs.
2. Larva
:
Is also called caterpillar, it
emerges from egg after few days. Caterpillar spends most of it’s time eating.
3. Pupa
:
The caterpillar forms a protective
shield called pupa when it has finished growing most of the transformation
takes place in side pupa.
4. Butterfly
:
When the pupa has finished
transformation the butterfly emerges from the pupa. The adult butterfly lays
eggs on plants after mating period.
That’s
all my presentation, our group hope the explanation become knowledge to give a
short look of how metamorphosis take place.
