Barnacle larvae undergo two primary stages: the nauplius stage and the cyprid stage. The nauplius stage is the first larval form, characterized by a free-swimming, planktonic lifestyle. Following several molts, the larvae transition into the cyprid stage, which is the final larval form equipped with a pair of antennae for attachment. In this stage, they seek a suitable substrate to settle and metamorphose into adult barnacles.
heteromorph - good luck with the cross quiz!!
No you idiot
The nauplius larvae share characteristic features with other crustaceans, such as possessing one eye and three pairs of appendages. By observing these larvae in barnacles and tongue worms, scientists could classify them as crustaceans based on these shared traits. This discovery helped to place barnacles and tongue worms within the larger group of crustaceans.
Their larvae stages are motile stages.
Egg--Larvae--Pupa--Adult
Predators of barnacles include sea stars, snails, crabs, and certain fish species. These predators feed on both adult barnacles and their larvae, and play a role in controlling barnacle populations in marine ecosystems.
The four stages of mosquito development are egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Mosquitoes lay their eggs in water, where they hatch into larvae that feed and grow. The larvae then develop into pupae, which eventually emerge as adult mosquitoes.
Plenty of animals are sessile, meaning attached to something like a plant. They include sponges, anemones, corals, barnacles, and sea squirts. Their larva larvae do swim around, though corals can reproduce by budding.
In order of occurrence: the egg, the larvae, the pupae, and then the adult
Barnacles are a type of shellfish. They grow from free swimming larvae.
There are four stages to the life cycle of a glowworm - eggs, larvae, pupa or cocoon, adult fly. They glow at the larvae stage.
Barnacles are sessile as adults. They start out as mobile larvae and attach to something big like a whale or a boat. Then they stay in this position for the rest of their lives.
