I had always thought that a complete metamorphosis involved a pupae stage. The argument that a froglet, being just a smaller version of an adult frog, might lead one to believe that humans (post natal) undergo a similar bypass of the pupae stage, in that as human babies, they do resemble humans, but are grossly dissimilar in proportion, human's baby's heads being about 1/3 of their total body length.

∙ 13y agoA frog begins as an egg, but when it hatches it is a tadpole - composed of a head and a tail that swims - followed by a process of slowly growing legs, losing its tail, and gaining its frog-like structure.

∙ 8y agoMetamorphosis is the change of an animals shape during it's life. A frog starts out as a tadpole, then around six weeks old they starts to widen, around ten weeks the frogletâ??s eyes start to bulge out and the tail begins to disappear. Once the lungs and legs finish developing the froglet can now go on to land.

That is, it develops from a water-breathing fish-like animal into an air-breathing animal that walks on land as well as swims in water. It loses gills and develops legs (tasty!) as well as a long roll-out tongue to catch insects. Some also develop specialized organs that produce poisons.

∙ 8y agoFour legs appear, the tadpole tail shrinks, and the frog breathes with lungs rather than tadpole gills. The frog will also leave the water and seek shelter underneath, cool, damp places. The frog may retreat into water if threatened, but spends more time on land. It will return to water to breed and lay frog spawn.

What is an insect that goes through incomplete metamorphosis?
I don't know too many insects that go through a complete metamorphosis, but I know that a fly, butterfly, moth, beetle, ants, bees, ladybugs and cockroach . Just a fun fact: about 88% of insects go through a complete metamorphosis.
Why is a frog an example of incomplete metamorphosis?
Because standard metamorphosis includes a pupal phase. But frogs do not have a larval stage, only a larval and adult.
Do both frogs and toad go through metamorphosis?
frogs undergo incomplete metamorphosis because they do not go through a third stage.In frog development, the eggs hatch and give rise to tadpoles, small aquatic larvae that have external gills and are mainly vegetarian. As the tadpole grows, internal gills and limbs form. Several significant changes occur during metamorphosis into the adult, including growth of a large mouth and tongue, loss of gills, formation of lungs, growth of the front legs, and resorption of the tail. Numerous biochemical changes accompany these morphological changes, such as synthesis of a new visual pigment in the eyes and a new oxygen-binding hemoglobin protein in the blood. The adult is mainly insectivorous and partly terrestrialRead more: Metamorphosis - Amphibians - Adult, Changes, Gills, and Development - JRank Articles http://science.jrank.org/pages/4276/Metamorphosis-Amphibians.html#ixzz2UadIy4hP
What changes a frog and toad go through from birth to adulthood?
Baby frogs and toads are called tadpoles. The tadpoles undergo metamorphosis and then grow up into toads and frogs. The tadpoles develop legs and lungs.
What is the hormone responsible for metamorphosis in frogs and toads?
Thyroxine
What is another animal which have the same feature as the pansy butterfly.?
Houseflies and monarch butterflies undergo complete metamorphosis: egg --> larva --> pupae --> adult.Grasshoppers and praying mantises undergo incomplete metamorphosis: egg --> nymph --> adult.
Do humans undergo metamorphosis?
no. they are the same basic shape of a 'mini adult' example: frogs are not mini adults. they are tadpoles and undergo metamorphosis until they are frogs. note: metamorphosis is NOT evolution
What process do frogs undergo that physically changes them from from a tadpole to an adult tetrapod?
metamorphosis

metamorphosis

Does frog undergo complete metamorphosis?
I'm sure they do.Complete metamorphesis is when an animal changes completly.
Do bobcats go through metamorphosis?
No, bunnies do not go through metamorphosis.
What process do frogs undergo that physicaly changes them from a tadpole to an adult tetrapod?
Metamorphosis. The back legs grow, then the front legs. The tail then disappears and you have a froglett.

What are frogs cald when they are not a complete frog?
as babies; tadpoles as they r ghrown up; frogs butifthey are incomplete; half ribbit:):)
Do amphibians have a complete metamorphosis?
Yes they do, because they change from a larva to a subadult while their body is changed drastically, especially frogs. They are the only amphibians without a tail after metamorphosis.
