Maggots do not spin a cocoon to become flies. Flies lay eggs which maggots hatch from and then go through a complete metamorphosis.
If you eat a maggot that is in a fruit, it will get digested in your body. You should not get sick, but if you do, visit your doctor to be checked out.
The apple maggot, scientifically known as Rhagoletis pomonella, begins its life as an egg laid by an adult female fly on an apple or other fruit. Once the egg hatches, the larva burrows into the fruit, feeding on the flesh as it grows. After several weeks, the larva pupates, typically within the fruit or in the soil, eventually emerging as an adult fly. This life cycle allows the apple maggot to adapt and thrive in its host environment, often leading to co-evolution with fruiting plants.
It's a fruit because it grows flowers before it becomes a fruit.
The four stages in a fruit fly's life cycle are egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Fruit flies lay their eggs on decaying fruits and vegetables, which hatch into larvae (or maggots) that feed and grow before entering the pupal stage. The adult fruit fly emerges from the pupa and begins the cycle again by laying eggs.
Basically green plants are producers and a maggot is not a green plant so it must be a consumer
The Ovary of the flower becomes the fruit after fertilization by pollen
Fruit flies undergo a process called complete metamorphosis. They start as eggs laid by adult female fruit flies on fermenting fruit or organic matter. The eggs hatch into larvae (maggots) that feed and grow before pupating into adult fruit flies.
In the ovary, there are ovules. There, when it is fertilized, it becomes a fruit.
A fruit fly can live up to 40-50 days. A female fruit fly will lay her eggs on a piece of fruit or decaying organism. The eggs will hatch into larvae, eat from the fruit and grow into a full grown adult fruit fly.
The apple maggot (Rhagoletis pomonella) is a small fly, typically about 1/4 inch long, with a distinctive appearance. It has a black body with white bands on its thorax and a characteristic grayish-white pattern on its abdomen. The adult flies have red eyes and clear wings, which may have a slight smoky appearance. The larvae, known for infesting apples, are small, creamy-white worms that can be found inside the fruit.
