Which outcome occurs when juvenile hormone (JH) concentration is moderately sustained during activation of imaginal discs?

💡 Explanation

A sustained moderate JH level allows some development; however, complete development to pupation does not occur because gene expression isn't fully switched on. This prevents the transition into the pupa stage, rather than normal molting; therefore, outcome A. Full differentiation requires lower JH.
