Question

Mother butterflies lay eggs on the leaf of a specific plant.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

$\bullet$ Female butterflies lay eggs on the leaves of a particular plant.
$\bullet$ When the caterpillars grow, they nibble on the leaves of the plant on which the eggs were laid and so they develop a liking for that plant. This is why the butterfly lays its eggs on the leaves of a particular plant.
$\bullet$ For example, the female plain tiger butterfly lays its eggs on a milkweed (rui) plant.
