They often need to live in water for a year or more, and they can become dragonflies that can fly in the sky by molting many times. Dragonflies lay eggs in contact with water. Nature is so wonderful. Sounds like a butterfly. It takes several molts to grow up. In fact, the growth process of butterflies and dragonflies is very different.
Butterflies go through four stages in their life: egg, larva, pupa and adult. There are only three dragonflies, eggs, worms and adults. Note that the development of dragonflies does not go through the pupa stage. In addition, the names of their second development stage are different. Butterflies are called larvae, dragonflies are called weak worms or larvae. Butterfly larvae molt several times and become pupae. Adults emerge from pupae and shed their shells.
Do butterflies lay eggs in the water like dragonflies? No, butterflies usually lay their eggs on their babies, that is, leaves that larvae like to eat. In this way, the baby will have food as soon as he is born. Except dragonflies, do other animals grow in water when they are young and fly in the sky when they grow up? Of course, one of them is very common in summer. They are much smaller than dragonflies, but they will suck our blood, and that is mosquitoes.
When baby mosquitoes live in water, baby dragonflies will eat baby mosquitoes that also live in water. What about when you grow up? Will you still eat mosquitoes? Of course, adult dragonflies mainly eat some flying insects. Besides mosquitoes, they also eat flies and moths. Their appetite is amazing. Some dragonflies can even eat 2000 small flying insects in one day. I have to say that dragonflies are veritable aviators and must be protected.
