← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome impairs adult structure development when ecdysone levels inconsistently stimulate imaginal discs?
A)Enhanced larval muscle fiber formation
B)Incomplete or deformed metamorphosis✓
C)Increased nutrient absorption in larva
D)Accelerated juvenile hormone production
💡 Explanation
Inconsistent ecdysone interrupts proper **transcriptional regulation** within imaginal discs, because cells do not properly differentiate according to genetic plans; therefore, metamorphosis becomes deformed rather than resulting in complete differentiation, without affecting fibers directly.
