Dragons are usually shown in modern times with a body like a huge lizard, or a snake with two pairs of lizard-type legs, and able to emit fire from their mouths. The European dragon has bat-like wings growing from its back.A dragon-like creature with wings but only a single pair of legs is known as a wyvern.lthough the indigenous name for a dragon in Japanese is tatsu (ãã¤) , a few of the Japanese words for dragon stem from the Chinese word for dragon, namely, ryÅ« (ããã) or ryÅ (ããã) (traditional :é¾; simplified :ç«).
Each peppered moth in the samples was identified by phenotype as melanic (solid black), typical (patterned wings), or intermediate (insularia). The range of phenotypic differences results from multiple alleles at a single locus, with the allele producing full melanism as dominant (Lees and Creed 1977; West 1977).
Butterfly Life Cycle. The butterfly and moth develop through a process called metamorphosis. This is a Greek word that means transformation or change in shape. Insects have two common types of metamorphosis. Grasshoppers, crickets, dragonflies, and cockroaches have incomplete metamorphosis.
