AI overview

Metamorphosis is a biological process where animals undergo dramatic physical transformations, such as when a dragonfly changes from its aquatic nymphal form into a winged adult. This process matters because it allows animals to adapt to different environments and lifestyles at different stages of their lives, increasing their survival and reproductive success.

Metamorfos, förvandling eller omvandling betecknar inom biologin en förändring hos ett djur under utveckling, särskilt radikala förändringar som exempelvis när en fjärilslarv under ett puppstadium blir till en vuxen fjäril, eller ett vattenlevande grodyngel utvecklas till en landlevande vuxen groda.
