biological metamorphosis

Biological metamorphosis is a natural process where an organism undergoes a significant transformation as it develops from its early stages to maturity. This often involves distinct phases, such as from an egg to a larva, then to a pupa, and finally to an adult, as seen in insects like butterflies. During this process, the organism's body structures and functions change dramatically, enabling it to adapt to different environments or roles in its life cycle. Metamorphosis is driven by genetic programs and hormonal signals, allowing seamless transition between stages and increasing survival chances.
