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.
Show the difference between a cocoon and a chrysalis?
No. Butterflies and Moths lay eggs. These eggs hatch out into caterpillars which eat plany material and grow. Once they are full size, the caterpillars make a cocoon/chrysalis then this cocoon/chrysalis hatches out into a new butterfly or moth. To be more clear, butterfly caterpillars do not make a cocoon; they pupate (transform into a chrysalis) which then hatches into the butterfly However, some moth caterpillers also spin a cocoon round themselves (made of silk) before pupating. Before pupating the caterpiller will normally move off its food source to find somewhere safe and hidden to pupate.
