Answer:

D. the larva sheds its skin several times

Step-by-step explanation:

At the end of the larval stage the insect will make a hard shell and inside it will become a pupa. At this stage the larva will stop eating and moving. The pupa appears lifeless, but one of Nature's most amazing transformations is happening.
