1 Danlos syndromes symptoms and signs are joints that are more flexible than normal and loose skin that stretches away from the body.  The diagnosis of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is based upon the clinical findings of the patient and the family history.
Metamorphosis is a biological process by which an animal physically develops after birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal's form or structure through cell growth and differentiation.
Complete metamorphosis has four stages: Egg, Larva, Pupa, and Adult. In each stage of complete metamorphosis, the animal looks different than at all other stages. This is different from incomplete metamorphosis where the early stages of development look like tiny versions of the adult. Butterflies are an example of an insect that goes through all the stages of complete metamorphosis. Complete metamorphosis begins with the insect hatching from an egg into a soft worm-like shape called a larva. Larvae have a very big appetite and can eat several times their own body weight every day.
