A) The growth and development of a ladybug depends on metamorphosis that occurs during the life cycle.

Explanation:

The life cycle of the ladybug starts from the egg. The woman ladybug lays a cluster of five to 30 eggs once she has matted. She normally places her eggs on a plant with the right prey for her descendants to consume as they hunt. A single female ladybug can produce more than 1000 eggs in a three months span beginning in spring or early summer.

Researchers agree that cockroaches lay both fertile and infertile cluster eggs. The freshly slurred larvae feed on the infertile eggs while aphids are in a small supply.
