What is the name for the process of insects transforming from a young insect to an adult?

Correct Answer: metamorphosis
maturation
spontaneous mutation
parthenogenesis

Explanation: An insect can have one of three types of metamorphosis and life cycles ( Table below ). Metamorphosis describes how insects transform from an immature or young insect into an adult insect in at least two stages. Insects may undergo gradual metamorphosis (incomplete), where transformation is subtle, or complete metamorphosis, where each stage of the life cycle appears quite different from the others. In some insects, there may be no true metamorphosis at all.
