Exploring the Stages of a Butterfly's Life Cycle

The video explains the butterfly life cycle, which includes four stages: egg, caterpillar (larva), chrysalis (pupa), and adult butterfly (imago). Each stage has distinct characteristics and objectives, with the entire process taking from a month to a year depending on the butterfly type. The video details how butterflies transform through metamorphosis, starting as eggs laid by the mother butterfly, growing rapidly as caterpillars, forming a protective chrysalis, and finally emerging as adult butterflies ready to fly and reproduce.
