Tony wrote about the metamorphosis of an ant in his ant farm. Read the passage and find Tony's mistake. Then, choose the stateme
nt that has the correct information. Ants go through complete metamorphosis cycle. When an ant egg hatches, a baby ant, called a nymph, emerges. The nymph sheds its skin and creates a cocoon where it develops. When it is ready, the cocoon breaks, and an ant comes out.
What statement corrects the error in Tony's passage?
A newly hatched ant is called a larva, not a nymph.
An ant goes through metamorphosis, but does not hatch from an egg.
The pupa, not the nymph, sheds its skin and creates a cocoon.
When the larva hatches, a baby ant, called a nymph, emerges.
