Best Answer

the butterfly sheds once more and it hangs from it's silk that's is it's cocoon.

answer 2 The caterpillar that grows from a butterflies egg, enters the pupa stage, by spinning a silken cocoon which will protect it during its metamorphosis from caterpillar to butterfly.

Most of the caterpillar seems to dissolve into a organic sludge, and due to the miracle of life and DNA, this re-assembles itself into the butterfly!

Which eventually emerges from the cocoon, and spends a few minutes pumping up its wings to become more rigid, and flies off.

Why do bees feed grubs and seal them up?

The "grubs" are bee larvae. Like all insects, the larvae grow, then enter the pupa stage to metamophose into the adult form. While pupating, they need to be protected, kept warm and precented from dehydrating. Sealing the pupas into the honey cells achieves this. Once ready, the adult bees chew the cell caps open and emerge.


What a pupa of butterfly eats?

Pupas do not eat. The pupa is a caterpillar, in a state of dormancy, completely encased in a cocoon. During this stage they do not eat, drink, or move at all. They grow wings, legs, and other parts to become an adult butterfly. Because they can't eat in their pupa stage, caterpillars eat massive amounts of food to have plenty of stored energy before they become encased in their cocoon.
