You are studying the arthropod molting hormones. Your experimental organism is the silkworm. You are conducting a series of experiments. In the first experiment you decide to experimentally decrease the production of the ecdysone by inhibiting the activity of the prothoracic gland during the first instar stage while maintaining the production of the juvenile hormone at normal levels. In the second experiment, you decide to maintain the ecdysone level normal and spray the first instar with juvenile hormone. Predict the results of your two experiments.
