← Nature & AnimalsWhich outcome limits insect regeneration by imaginal discs?
A)Incomplete cellular differentiation occurs quickly
B)Molting hormone production plateau inhibits growth
C)Disc apoptosis prevents uncontrolled proliferation✓
D)Nutrient scarcity restricts energy for differentiation
💡 Explanation
Disc apoptosis limits regeneration of imaginal discs during insect metamorphosis because it removes cells with major developmental errors, therefore maintaining precise adult structure, rather than risking uncontrolled cellular proliferation and tumor formation.
