CP3(C2)

Is the increase in cell size and number that take place during the life history of an organism.

Encompasses the biology of regeneration and reproduction, metamorphosis, and growth and differentiation of stem cells in the adult organism

Is a biological process by which new individual organism or offspring are produced from their parents(asexual or sexual).

Is a noncellular material that is located on top of the epidermal cell layer and constitutes the outermost part of the integument.

Is a periodic shedding of the cuticle followed by the formation of a new cuticle

Is a major constituent of the exoskeleton, or external skeleton, of many arthropods such as insects, spiders, and crustaceans.

What are the two processes involve in molting?

–the separation of old cuticle from underlying epidermis as mediated in part by ecdysone hormone

actual shedding of the remnants of the old cuticle as mediated by eclosion hormone

the remains of an exoskeleton and related structures that are left after ecdysozoans have moulted.

Is a biological process by which an animal (ecdysozoans) physically develops including birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal’s body structure through cell growth and differentiation .

What are the types of Development?

No metamorphosis. These insects are primitively wingless where the only difference between adult and nymph is size.

Incomplete metamorphosis - The immature stage inhabits in water and are called naiad. Wings appear as buds (wing pad) on the early instars. When the last molt is completed the wings expand to the full adult size.

Incomplete metamorphosis - The immature stage inhabits in terrestrially and are called nymphs. Insect young are usually similar to the adult. Wings appear as buds on the nymphs or early instars. When the last molt is completed the wings expand to the full adult size.

Complete metamorphosis - These insects have a different form in their immature and adult stages, have different behaviors and live in different habitats.

Types of Reproduction

Egg Types

Can be define as the number of broods or generations produced in a year in the life cycle of an organism under natural conditions.

This insects hatch one a year, so have one generation per year.

This insect hatch twice a year, thus having two generations per year.

These insects can hatch several eggs in a year, so may have multiple generations per year.

It is the process which the body changes food and drink into energy

What are the two processes of metabolism
