Insects display an incredible diversity of body forms and ecological roles. Some insects undergo complete metamorphosis, a lifecycle involving distinct larval, pupal, and adult stages. How might this lifecycle contribute to the success and diversity of these insects? It allows the larval and adult stages to exploit different resources or habitats. It allows the insects to reproduce more rapidly. It provides a defense against predators. It allows the insects to migrate long distances.
Describe and distinguish patterns of reproduction in monotremes, marsupials, and placental mammals. What aspects of mammalian reproduction characterize all mammals but no other vertebrates?
Unlike life cycles found in many land plants and protist's life, animals do not go through alternations of generations. However, many animal life cycles include metamorphosis. Their development is said to be indirect. direct. viviparous. oviparous.
