metamorphosis
Two groups of animals that undergo metamorphosis are amphibians and insects. Amphibians, such as frogs, typically transition from a larval stage (tadpole) that lives in water to an adult form that can live on land. Insects, like butterflies and beetles, undergo complete metamorphosis, transforming from egg to larva (caterpillar or grub) to pupa (chrysalis or cocoon) before emerging as adults. This process allows these animals to adapt to different environments and niches throughout their life stages.
Metamorphosis is the change amphibians go throgh.I am a fourth grader just to tell you!
Amphibians have a variety of defense mechanisms. Some species have toxic skin secretions to deter predators, while others have the ability to change color for camouflage. Many amphibians also have the ability to regenerate lost limbs or tails, which can help them escape from predators.
metamorphosis. The change from one form to another.
After they change into adults!
Hemimetabolous insects have a gradual change from larva to adult and the larva resembles the adult it will become. Holometabgolous insects have a pupal instar and the larva does not resemble the adult.

Metamorphosis and transformation describe physical or biological change, such as insects which begins their life cycle as eggs, then change to larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis or cocoon), and finally become adults. Tadpoles transform into frogs.
A change in the form and often habits of an animal during normal development after the embryonic stage. Metamorphosis includes, in insects, the transformation of a maggot into an adult fly and a caterpillar into a butterfly and, in amphibians, the changing of a tadpole into a frog.
Generally, amphibians are born able to survive in the environment immediately and require no nourishment from their parents. Tadpoles, for example, will hatch and eat algae before their tail is absorbed and they become frogs. As they develop in their egg sac, however, they eat the mucus from the egg itself to see them through to spawning. Caecillians eat plant detritus and insects. As they grow to adulthood, the diet of amphibians may change.
The beginning of insect reproduction occurs when the female forms eggs in her ovaries. Sperm from a male is deposited in another special part of her body. When the female lays her eggs, the sperm fertilizes them. After hatching, the new insects undergo a growth stage. A few insects grow into adults when a tiny copy of the parent is hatched (for example, the silverfish). Other insects go through a nymph form before becoming adults (like the cricket). Some insects are hatched into larvae, change into pupae, and finally become adults. (The housefly is an example.)
