Hi, do insects go through internal or external fertilisation?

Pls provide some examples and let me know if there are any exceptions to the rule.

Thanks very much!

Hi! May I ask which assessment book or school past year paper did you get this question?

Don't remember seeing or reading this part of notes in any of the guide books (maybe I am a slow reader :razz: ) but in my opinion, I would think that insects go through internal fertilisation as insects have embryonic development within a waterproof egg.

Life cycle of an insect:
An insect goes through several stages of development in its life cycle.
Metamorphosis refers to the way insects develop, grow and change their forms.
There are 2 types - incomplete (3-stage life cycle e.g. Grasshopper) and complete (4-stage life cycle e.g. Mealworm).

Hi Champion,I did not get this question anywhere. I happened to see the term \"internal fertilisaton of eggs\" as one of the options provided in an MCQ Science question (Lower Block) and I got to wondering what is this internal/external fertilisation thingy.I googled it and these terms exist but the info was too messy and haphazard so I decided to ask the in-house experts here


Anyone out there who can enlighten me further, please do so.
Thanks very much!

Hi Champion,

Can you explain a little more about the complete vs incomplete metamorphosis of insects? I have not come across these terms.

Thanks!
