Insects are oviparous.
When the egg hatches, the offspring looks like a worm.
It hasn't got any wings or antennae.
It is called a larva for some insects, and a caterpillar for butterflies and moths.
Larvae and caterpillars eat all the time.
Silk moth: when the caterpillar grows large, it makes a cocoon.
An adult silk moth emerges from the cocoon.
