2. Discussion and Analysis:
Background Information: COT Indicator 3
 Metamorphosis is a biological process by which an animal Applied a range
physically develops after birth or hatching. It is part of the of teaching
life cycle of most of the insects. A life cycle is a period strategies to
involving one generation of an organism. The term develop critical
metamorphosis refers to the way insects develop, grow and thinking, as well
charge form, usually (but not always) accompanied by as other higher-
change of habitat or behavior. These are two types of order thinking
metamorphosis: complete and incomplete skills.
 Most insects go through the four stages of complete
metamorphosis, including the lady bug, housefly, mosquito,
and butterfly.
1. Egg – a female insect lays egg
2. Larvae – hatch from egg but do not look adult insects. For
instance, the larvae of butterflies are caterpillars. Larvae
grow quickly enough to have molt or shed their exoskeleton
a few times before they pupate. Sometimes, these stages of
growth in larvae are called “instars”.
3. Pupa – larvae makes cocoon around themselves and
become busy changing into their adult forms. They do not
eat during this time. This can take few days, or in some
cases months.
4. Adult – after a period of time, larvae are nothing like it
was and exits the cocoon or larval body as an adult. This life
cycle starts over again.
