MetamorphosisMetamorphosis- A process of changes - A process of changes in form during an animal’s developmentin form during an animal’s development
MostMost insects go through complete insects go through complete metamorphosis.metamorphosis.

ELPA will help ya remember complete metamorphosis:
1. Egg (laid by female animal)2. Larva (worm-like, doesn’t resemble adult)
3. Pupa (the body changes form here)
4. Adult (fully-grown animal)

Frogs also go through complete metamorphosis, but it’s different from ELPA.
Frog life cycle stages:1. Egg2. Tadpole (lives in water, breathes
with gills)3. Legs and lungs develop, tail and
gills absorbed into body4. Adult Frog (lives on land)
A few insects (about 10%) go through incomplete metamorphosis.
In this type of life cycle, the young resembles the adult.
Incomplete Metamorphosis Insects:◦crickets, grasshoppers

3.Adult (reproduction can happen)***Death can happen anytime.Think ENA, ELPA’s cousin.
Complete Metamorphosis
Incomplete Metamorphosis
BIG CHANGE!!!!!! The young DOES NOT
resemble the adult. The young looks like a
worm. About 90% of insects. 4 stages (egg, larva,
pupa, adult) Insects change during
pupa stage.
NOT SO BIG CHANGE!!!! The young DOES
resemble the adult. The young looks like the
adult, except it doesn’t have wings.
Only about 10% of insects.
3 stages (egg, nymph, adult)
Insects change by molting, or shedding exoskeleton.
