Butterfly Metamorphosis
Hello steemian friends!
In my post a few days ago, I've been posting about the caterpillar. At this time I am interested in posting to post again about the grubs, but not just caterpillar but changes the caterpillar becomes a butterfly.
The caterpillar plant eaters, animals are often found in various plants. Most people consider it very disgusting worms, but after the caterpillar turns into a butterfly, a lot of people like it, because the butterfly has wings with colors and shapes that are diverse and very beautiful.
Changing the shape of the caterpillar becoming the butterfly is usually called with the metamorphosis. the metamorphosis that occurs on the butterfly takes a fairly long time.
Here I will discuss the four stages in the metamorphosis of the butterfly:
1. Eggs
Basically the butterfly is the animal lay eggs. The female butterfly put their eggs at the end or under leaves on the plant and it will hatch within 3 to 5 days. Each leaf has a butterfly favorite, because it's a female butterfly always put their eggs in the leaves that he liked.
2. Larva
After the eggs hatch, butterfly eggs are not directly into a butterfly, but instead became a larva or caterpillar. That's because the process of meramorfosis. The caterpillar is animal eaters of plants (leaves) that is repulsive to some, the caterpillar each day grows rapidly because the caterpillars eat the leaves very diligently. When the caterpillar grows large reach maximum size, then the caterpillar will be looking for a place to turn into a chrysalis.
3. Pupa
Other names of the pupa is the chrysalis, chrysalis is the final stage of metamorphosis. Judging from the srate of the pupa does not move, it does not mean there is no process of change. Process in the chrysalis continued to shape up into a butterfly for 7 days in the future.
4. Butterfly
After cocoons rupture, so was the name of a butterfly or in another language is called imago. The butterfly has a wing that is very beautiful.
That's four stages of metamorphosis against butterfly, may be useful.
