Which developmental outcome occurs when imaginal discs in a holometabolous insect exhibit uncontrolled growth signaling?

💡 Explanation

When imaginal discs experience uncontrolled growth signaling, cellular proliferation becomes unregulated because of disrupted signaling pathways, leading to neoplastic tumor formation in the developing adult. Therefore tumor formation results, rather than faster maturation, molt failure, or yolk deficit which each follow different hormonal imbalances.
