Which developmental outcome typically occurs in insect larvae if corpora allata activity is prematurely terminated?

💡 Explanation

When corpora allata activity is prematurely terminated, juvenile hormone production ceases because larval development stages depends to the presence of JH, triggering precocious metamorphosis and pupation without further larval molts. Therefore, pupation happens immediately, rather than delay molting, form giant larvae or hardening exoskeleton because alternative outcomes require continued JH presence.
