The Differences In Metamorphisms Are Perfect And Not Perfect Inandering Developments

YOGYAKARTA - In the biological world, metamorphosis is a process of changing the shape and body structure of the animal from the larvan phase to adulthood. Sometimes metamorphosis in animals can take place ideally and some may experience defects or not perfect. So what is the difference between perfect and imperfect metamorphosiss?

The process of metamorphosis is very important, especially for insects. Metamorphosis is useful for insects to be able to develop and adapt to the environment. If the metamorphosis process is imperfect, the shape of the insect's body will be less ideal than usual. For example, when the size is smaller or the wings are less developed.

That's why sometimes we find insects with less perfect shapes when compared to regular insects. Let's recognize what the differences in metamorphosis are perfect and imperfect as well as the comparisons.

In general, metamorphosis occurs due to hormonal changes that regulate developments from one stage to the next. In metamorphosis, there are perfect types of metamorphosis (holometabolic) and imperfect metamorphosis (hemimetabola).

Here are the fundamental differences from perfect and imperfect metamorphosiss that you need to know:

The perfect metamorphosis or holomatebola is a type of metamorphosis consisting of four stages of development, namely:

In perfect metamorphosis, each stage has a different function. Larva serves to eat and store energy, pupa serves as a transformation phase, and the image is a reproductive stage.

Unlike perfect metamorphosis, imperfect metamorphosis involves only three stages, namely:

In imperfect metamorphosis, changes in body shape are not too drastic as in perfect metamorphosis. Nimfa already has a shape that almost resembles an adult insect, only it is smaller in size and its wings have not developed perfectly.

That's a review of the difference in perfect and imperfect metamorphosis in animals, especially insects. In perfect metamorphosis, animals will undergo a development process in 4 stages. While the metamorphosis is perfect in just 3 stages. Also read 6 most animal species on earth.
