The Metamorphosis deviate from the standard structure of Freytag's pyramid because more than one scene can be considered the climax.
The standard structure of Freytag's pyramid is :
-Exposition
-Rising Action
-Climax
-Falling Action
-Resolution
Having more than one climax makes a story or plot to have a different structure, as we can see in The Metamorphosis.
