What is the life cycle of caterpillars, and how do they transform into butterflies?
Caterpillars go through four stages in their life cycle: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult (butterfly). After hatching from an egg, the caterpillar eats and grows until it forms a chrysalis. Inside the chrysalis, the caterpillar undergoes metamorphosis and transforms into a butterfly.

What is the butterflies diet during each stageof their life cycle?
When an egg hatches, a small caterpillar emerges. Depending on what type of butterfly it is, it may eat leaves, or some carnivorous caterpillars eat flesh, or detritus.
