Jellyfish have a complex life cycle which includes both sexual and asexual phases, with the medusa being the sexual stage in most instances. Sperm fertilize eggs, which develop into larval planulae, become polyps, bud into ephyrae and then transform into adult medusae. In some species certain stages may be skipped. [65]
The larvae or larval stadium: some gastropods may be trochophore and/or veliger; Estivation and hibernation (each of these are present in some gastropods only) The growth of gastropods; Courtship and mating in gastropods: fertilization is internal or external according to the species. External fertilization is common in marine gastropods.
Typically the mandibles are the largest and most robust mouthparts of a chewing insect, and it uses them to masticate (cut, tear, crush, chew) food items. Two sets of muscles move the mandibles in the coronal plane of the mouth: abductor muscles move insects' mandibles apart ( laterally ); adductor muscles bring them together ( medially ).
Other larvae, especially in ancestral pools and warmer climates, may not metamorphose until fully adult size. These large larvae are usually known as 'waterdogs', [29] and are used extensively in the fishing bait and pet trades. Some populations may not metamorphose at all, and become sexually mature while in their larval form.
Marine larval ecology is the study of the factors influencing dispersing larvae, which many marine invertebrates and fishes have. Marine animals with a larva typically release many larvae into the water column, where the larvae develop before metamorphosing into adults.
These pharate larvae lie sequestered within the shells of the eggs until the following spring. Henceforth, these encased larvae are the most durable of the insect's life stages. In northern areas, the pharate larvae are highly freeze-tolerant and can withstand midwinter temperatures of −40 °C (−40 °F) or lower.
Cysticercosis is a tissue infection caused by the young form of the pork tapeworm. [6] [1] People may have few or no symptoms for years.[3] [2] In some cases, particularly in Asia, solid lumps of between one and two centimetres may develop under the skin. [1]
