Study Notes
- Complete metamorphosis occurs in higher insects
- It involves a larva, pupa, and imago stage
- The larva feeds, moves, moults, and grows
- The pupa undergoes internal changes to form the imago
- Histolysis is the process of breaking down larval organs
- Imaginal buds are rudiments of future organs
- Histogenesis is the process of forming new adult organs
- Imago develops inside the pupa
- Adult wings develop from imaginal buds in complete metamorphosis
- In hemimetabolous metamorphosis, the adult wings develop externally from the integument
