Do vertebrates go through complete metamorphosis?

Vertebrates do not typically go through complete metamorphosis in the way that some invertebrates, like insects, do. However, certain vertebrates, particularly amphibians like frogs, undergo a form of metamorphosis, transitioning from a larval stage (tadpole) to an adult form. This process is characterized by significant physiological changes, but it is not considered "complete" metamorphosis in the strictest sense. Other vertebrates, such as fish and reptiles, generally develop through more direct growth stages without a dramatic transformation.
