    This document discusses the differences between complete and incomplete metamorphosis in insects. Incomplete metamorphosis has three stages: egg, nymph, and adult. Nymphs resemble small adults but do not have wings. Complete metamorphosis has four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Larvae hatch from eggs but do not resemble adults, often taking a worm-like shape. During the pupa stage, larvae undergo transformation within a cocoon before emerging as adults. Frogs also undergo complete metamorphosis from egg to tadpole to adult frog with legs and lungs. The document ends with sample quiz questions to test the reader's understanding of these concepts.

    Complete and

    Lets look at the


    difference!

    What is
    Metamorphosis refers to the way
    metamorphosis?
    that certain organisms develop,
    grow, and change form.

    Metamorphosis

    "change".

    actually means

    Two Types of
    Metamorphosis
    INCOMPLETE METAMORPHOSIS

    has THREE stages

    COMPLETE METAMORPHOSIS has FOUR stages.

    INCOMPLETE
    METAMORPHOSIS
    Lets take a closer look
    at each stage!

    3 STAGES OF
    INCOMPLETE
    METAMORPHOSIS
    Egg
    Nymph
    Adult

    EGG
    A

    female insect lays eggs.


    These eggs are often covered
    by an egg case which protects
    the eggs and holds them
    together.

    NYMPH

    The eggs hatch into nymphs.

    Nymphs looks like small adults, but usually don't have wings.

    Insect nymphs eat the same food that the adult insect eats.

    Nymphs shed or molt their exoskeletons (outer casings made up


    of a hard substance called chitin) and replace them with larger
    ones several times as they grow.

    Most nymphs molt 4-8 times.

    ADULT
    The

    insects stop molting when


    they reach their adult size. By this
    time, they have also grown wings.

    COMPLETE
    METAMORPHOSIS
    Lets take a closer look
    at each stage!

    4 STAGES OF
    COMPLETE
    Egg
    METAMORPHOSIS
    Larva
    Pupa
    Adult

    EGG

    The

    female lays eggs.

    LARVA

    Larva hatch from the eggs. They do not


    look like adult insects. They usually have a
    worm-like shape.

    Caterpillars, maggots, and grubs are all


    just the larval stages of insects. Larvae
    molt their skin several times and they grow
    slightly larger.

    PUPA

    Larva make cocoons around themselves.

    Larva don't eat while they're inside their


    cocoons.

    Their bodies develop into an adult shape with


    wings, legs, internal organs, etc.

    This change takes anywhere from 4 days to


    many months.

    ADULT
    Inside

    the cocoon, the larvae


    change into adults. After a
    period of time, the adult breaks
    out of the cocoon.

    WHAT ABOUT FROGS?

    Frogs undergo a different type of


    COMPLETE METAMORPHOSIS.
    From the egg emerges a tadpole, which
    lives in the water, breathes with gills, and
    has a tail.
    As the tadpole grows, lungs and legs form,
    and the gills and tail are absorbed into the
    body.
    Finally, the animal leaves the water and
    lives mainly on land, as a frog.
