← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome occurs when larval hormone suppression fails but imaginal discs differentiate?
A)Adult structures prematurely grow in larva✓
B)Larva delays pupation under prolonged growth
C)Differentiated cells revert to larval form
D)Incomplete structures form during molting
💡 Explanation
Premature adult structures form because the *repression* mechanism fails; larval hormones should suppress the already forming imaginal discs. Therefore, adult tissue develops in larval form, rather than a stalled pupal or reversion, assuming discs have fully developed.
