HOW DOES
THE LIFE CYCLE
OF BUTTERFLY?
BUTTERFLY METAMOSPHOSIS
Many people believe that butterfly has a very short age. In fact, adult
butterfly can live for a week or even a year, in depends on the species. Most of
the species on the level of larvae live quite longer and those can be dormant on
the level of cocoon or egg in order to survive in the cold weather.
Butterfly can give egg once or many times a year. The number of its
heredity is different. It depends on the influence of the climate, in which
butterfly that live in the tropical region can give egg more than once a year.
Butterfly is an insect which has perfect metamorphosis. Perfect
metamorphosis has four steps of growth in its life cycle.
Metamorphosis is the process from worm into a new animal (perfect
phase) is a butterfly. The process is quite long but simple. First, it starts from
egg which is put on a leave in order the leave can be the food for the worm
until it is adult and becomes a cocoon and in some days it will become new
butterfly.
THE PROCESS OF BUTTERFLY METAMOSPHOSIS
There are four stages in the metamorphosis of butterflies and moths: egg, larva, pupa, and adult.
1. EGG
Eggs are laid on plants by the adult female butterfly. These plants will be the become the food for
the hatching caterpillars. Eggs can be laid from spring, summer or fall. This depends on the species of
butterfly. Females lay a lot of eggs at once so that at least some of them survive. Butterfly eggs can be very
small.
