Solution

The correct option is A metamorphosis

Metamorphosis is the change because of which the young ones look completely different from their adults.
Pupa is the third stage in the life cycle of a butterfly, in which the butterfly stays in a chrysalis before it comes out.
Moult is the skin that the caterpillar sheds in its life span.
