Which developmental shift results when juvenile hormone diminishes?

💡 Explanation

Progression to the pupal stage occurs via hormonal signalling; specifically, a decrease in juvenile hormone allows the insect to proceed to metamorphosis, because this falling hormone concentration signals that the larva has reached a critical size, therefore a pupal stage is initiated, rather than continued larval growth stages.
