← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs as caterpillar imaginal discs develop?
A)New adult structures differentiate appropriately.✓
B)The pupa remains permanently larval.
C)Complete programmed cell death ensues.
D)Generalized tissue growth occurs randomly.
💡 Explanation
Correct differentiation of the new adult structures occurs because insect metamorphosis uses hormones that activate imaginal discs leading to specific cell growth; therefore adult structures develop correctly, rather than reverting to larval or uncontrolled tissues.
