Metamorphosis and transformation both indicate changes. One of the major difference I feel is, in metamorphosis, situation can’t be reversed . If a caterpillar changed in to the butterfly, can’t go back in pupa stage or Larvae stage. Butterfly needs to learn flying instead of relearning crawling like larvae.

This prejudiced use of terminology vexed me, and reminded me of the varying occasions where…
