Metamorphosis are the series of processes involved in the development of organisms, mostly insects after the egg is hatched.

Insects undergo complete or incomplete metamorphosis

Complete metamorphosis involves 4 stages which is the development from egg to larva to pups to adults in a step wise manner e.g butterfly, moth etc

Egg—> Larva—> Pupa—> Adults
