  1. Big Idea 16: Heredity & Reproduction Life Cycles of Insects: Complete & Incomplete Metamorphosis Mary Tweedy Curriculum Support Specialist Dr. Millard Lightburn Science Supervisor

  2. Benchmarks SC.4.L.16.4 - Compare and contrast the major stages in the life cycles of Florida plants and animals, such as those that undergo incomplete and complete metamorphosis, and flowering and nonflowering seed-bearing plants. (Cognitive Complexity Rating: Moderate) SC.5.N.2.1 Recognize and explain that science is grounded in empirical observations that are testable; explaining must always be linked with evidence. (Cognitive Complexity: Moderate)

  3. Characteristics of Insects • Insects are small animals with a head, a thorax, an abdomen, and six legs. • All insects start their lives as eggs. • These eggs can be different colors, shapes, and sizes. • All insects go through metamorphosis after birth.

  4. Life Cycles of Insects Animals that change their appearance during growth undergo metamorphosis. That's just a long word meaning "to change shape.“ The change that occurs when an insect egg hatches and grows into an adult is called metamorphosis, meaning to change in form. Insects and Metamorphosis

  6. Insect Metamorphosis Review Incomplete three phases • egg • nymph • Adult Example: grasshopper Complete four phases egg larva pupa Adult Example: bee

  7. Compare and Contrast Insects to Amphibians
