Larva I (Larva, Plur. Larvae)

Larva I (Larva, Plural Larvae) is the preceding adult stage of development of some animal species, consisting in the hatching of immature individuals, for example, insects or nematodes, from eggs. They are very different from the mature sexual representatives of their species and have a different way of living. For example, the larvae of some species of flies parasitize the body of animals and can cause various diseases in humans and animals, while adults are free-living representatives of their species. - Larval (larval).



Larvae (Larva) are the pre-adult stage of some animal species. They hatch from eggs, but have not yet reached maturity and are unable to reproduce. Larvae differ from adults in structure, lifestyle and behavior.

For example, in some insect species, larvae can parasitize the body of other animals, which can lead to various diseases. At the same time, adult individuals of these insects usually lead a free lifestyle and do not harm other animals.

The larvae may also have ecological significance. For example, they can serve as food for other animals or participate in the decomposition of organic matter.

In addition, larvae can be used in medicine to produce vaccines and other medicines. For example, in some countries, mosquito larvae are used to produce antimalarial drugs.

Thus, larvae are an important stage in the development of some animal species and have many uses in various areas of life.



The larva is one of the stages of the life cycles of some animals. It follows the egg stage that usually develops into the adult members of the animal species. This stage is intermediate between the general life of the embryo and the adult stage in some organisms. The larva has no
