Summary Introduction

To describe: The larva.

Introduction: Some animals including humans develop directly into adults. The life cycle of most of the animals include at least one larval stage.

Explanation of Solution

Larvae are juvenile forms of many animals. It is a free-living and sexually immature form of an animal. Animals with indirect development undergo the larval phase before metamorphosis into adults. Different animals have different types of larval forms that are generally different from the adult form.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The way in which the larva differs from a juvenile of an animal.

Introduction: Metamorphosis is part of development. During metamorphosis, the structure and morphology of the animal are completely changed.

Explanation of Solution

The juvenile form of an animal resembles the adult physiologically. However, it is sexually immature. Therefore, the larva differs from the sexually mature adult.

Summary Introduction

To determine: The process by which a larva transforms into a juvenile.

Introduction: Animals with indirect development undergo the larval phase before metamorphosis into adults. However, in most of the animals, the life cycle includes at least one larval stage.

Explanation of Solution

The larva transforms into a juvenile by metamorphosis. Metamorphosis is the developmental process, during which the complete change in the structure and morphology of the animal takes place.

After you feel comfortable with your counting method and identifying cells in the various stages of mitosis, use the four images below of whitefish blastula to count the cells in each stage until you reach 100 total cells, recording your data below in Data Table 1. (You may not need to use all four images. Stop counting when you reach 100 total cells.) After totaling the cells in each stage, calculate the percent of cells in each stage. (Divide total of stage by overall total of 100 and then multiply by 100 to obtain percentage.)   Data Table 1Stage    Totals    PercentInterphase        Mitosis:        Prophase        Metaphase        Anaphase        Telophase        Cytokinesis        Totals    100    100% To find the length of time whitefish blastula cells spend in each stage, multiply the percent (recorded as a decimal, in other words take the percent number and divide by 100) by 24 hours. (Example: If percent is 20%, then Time in Hours = .2 * 24 = 4.8) Record your data in Data…
