question 13

Multiple Choice

Insects are capable of shedding their exoskeletons in a process called molting.This is especially noticeable in juvenile insects.Select the best choice that presents a diagrammed sequence of events during the molting process.

• A)prior to molting-brain surface cells secrete brain hormone\(\rarr\) which stimulates the prothoracic gland to produce ecdysome \(\rarr\) which causes molting
• B)prior to molting-brain surface cells secrete juvenile hormone \(\rarr\) which stimulates the prothoracic gland to produce ecdysome \(\rarr\) which causes molting
• C)prior to molting-brain surface cells secrete ecdysome \(\rarr\) which stimulates the prothoracic gland to produce juvenile hormone \(\rarr\) which causes molting
• D)prior to molting-the corpora allata near the brain secretes brain hormone \(\rarr\) which stimulates the prothoracic gland to produce ecdysome \(\rarr\) which causes molting
• E)prior to molting-the corpora allata near the brain secretes juvenile hormone \(\rarr\) which stimulates the prothoracic gland to produce ecdysome \(\rarr\) which causes molting
