Which outcome occurs when juvenile hormone concentrations decrease significantly?

A)Larval molting into another larval stage
B)Initiation of reproductive behavior
C)Metamorphosis to the pupal stage occurs
D)Prevention of premature adult development

💡 Explanation

Metamorphosis to pupal stage occurs because the decline in juvenile hormone allows for the activation of genes promoting pupation via gene regulation, therefore the insect becomes a pupa, rather than remaining a larva or undergoing another larval molt.
