Reproduction completes and perpetuates the cycle. In biology, a biological life cycle (or just life cycle when the biological context is clear) is a series of stages of the life of an organism, that begins as a zygote, often in an egg, and concludes as an adult that reproduces, producing an offspring in the form of a new zygote which then ...
Pinworm infection ( threadworm infection in the UK), also known as enterobiasis, is a human parasitic disease caused by the pinworm, Enterobius vermicularis. [3] The most common symptom is pruritus ani, or itching in the anal area. [1] The period of time from swallowing eggs to the appearance of new eggs around the anus is 4 to 8 weeks. [2]
Life cycle Life cycle of the monarch butterfly. Butterflies in their adult stage can live from a week to nearly a year depending on the species. Many species have long larval life stages while others can remain dormant in their pupal or egg stages and thereby survive winters. The Melissa Arctic (Oeneis melissa) overwinters twice as a caterpillar.
Enterprise life cycle, the process of changing a business enterprise. Project life cycle. Product lifecycle, the stages in the lifespan of a commercial or consumer product. New product development, the process of bringing a new product to market. Life-cycle assessment, the analysis of the environmental impacts associated with a product.
Life cycle assessment ( LCA ), also known as life cycle analysis, is a methodology for assessing environmental impacts associated with all the stages of the life cycle of a commercial product, process, or service. For instance, in the case of a manufactured product, environmental impacts are assessed from raw material extraction and processing ...
Eel life history. Eels are any of several long, thin, bony fishes of the order Anguilliformes. They have a catadromous life cycle, that is: at different stages of development migrating between inland waterways and the deep ocean. Because fishermen never caught anything they recognized as young eels, the life cycle of the eel was long a mystery.
Cycle of poverty. In economics, a cycle of poverty or poverty trap is when poverty seems to be inherited causing subsequent generations to not be able to escape it. [1] It is caused by self-reinforcing mechanisms that cause poverty, once it exists, to persist unless there is outside intervention. [2] It can persist across generations, and when ...
Life-cycle of butterfly, undergoing complete metamorphosis from egg through caterpillar larvae to pupa and adult. Holometabolism, or complete metamorphosis, is where the insect changes in four stages, an egg or embryo, a larva, a pupa and the adult or imago. In these species, an egg hatches to produce a larva, which is generally worm-like in form.
