The second stage of the butterfly life cycle?

Monarch butterflies go through a four stage development cycle in their lifespans. The four stages of the monarch butterfly are the egg, the caterpillar or larvae, the chrysalis or pupa, and the butterfly.


What are the stages of direct development?

Direct development involves the embryo developing into a miniature version of the adult without going through a larval stage. The stages typically involve embryonic development, growth, and maturation directly into the adult form. No larval or intermediate stages are involved in direct development.


Why are three stages needed for development of fruit fly larvae?

The three stages, egg, larva, and pupa, are necessary for the development of fruit fly larvae because each stage plays a crucial role in the growth and maturation of the organism. The egg stage is where fertilization occurs and the initial development begins. The larva stage is when the fruit fly grows and undergoes significant physiological changes. Finally, the pupa stage is a period of dormancy where the larva transforms into an adult fruit fly.


What do you call a frog in its early stages of development?

When the sperm and egg of two animals meet, they create a zygote. It is then called an embryo during the early stages of development and later called a foetus.


Compare the life cycle of a butterfly and a bee?

Butterflies go through four stages in their life cycle: egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, and adult butterfly. Bees also go through four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult bee. Both insects undergo metamorphosis, but the timing and specific characteristics of their life stages differ.

What are the stages in a butterflies development?

A butterfly goes through four stages of development: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa (chrysalis), and adult butterfly. The egg hatches into a caterpillar that eats and grows, then it forms a chrysalis where it undergoes metamorphosis into an adult butterfly. The adult butterfly emerges from the chrysalis, ready to continue the life cycle by finding a mate and laying eggs.


What two processes are directly responsible for the growth and development of a butterfly?

The two processes that are directly responsible for the growth and development of a butterfly are metamorphosis and molting. Metamorphosis involves distinct stages of development, from egg to larva (caterpillar) to pupa (chrysalis) to adult butterfly. Molting is the shedding of the exoskeleton as the butterfly grows larger during each stage of its development.


How many stages does a butterfly's have?

about four to five stages


Do elephants go through a direct development?

Yes, direct development is when the baby it a miniature version of the adult. A baby elephant looks like an elephant. Direct development means there are no other life stages (larvae, pupae) in the animal.An animal that does NOT go through direct development would be a butterfly. A baby butterfly is a crawling, worm-like caterpillar, but the adult butterfly has huge wings. We call the baby butterfly a larvae.


How many stages does a butterfly need to fully get matured/devloped?

4 stages


What comes after the egg in the butterfly stages?

What evolutionary biologists study?

They're scientists who study the stages of growth and development that living organisms pass through from fertilized egg to adult...and beyond.


The four major stages of the development of the biography genre through history include all but what?

the internet era and the "blogosphere." The four major stages of the development of the biography genre through history include the social model of development, the biological model of intellectual development, the elaboration of the logical model of intellectual development and the study of figurative thought. Jean Paiget observed, tested and created a theoretical research program about the stages of development.


Child growth and development?

Child growth and development is the study that learns about children as they grow from conception to adulthood. All the stages they go through in the meantime is their development process into adulthood.
