The given picture illustrates the life cycle of an insect called cockroach.
In general, the life cycle lasts two years and the process contains a series of stages in a life cycle of the cockroach, but involves eight main steps which begins when the female adult cockroach lays the egg sack and finishes with the adult cockroach.
In the first stage of the process, the cockroach begins life as the egg sack or called ootecae. After that, the egg sack hatches into the newborn nymph which is covered with a white outer shell and grows the legs. Subsequently, the newborn nymph undergoes the molting process and becomes the early-stage nymph. At this stage, the outer shell changes the color and the legs are longer.
After a period of time, the early-stage nymph experiences four molting processes and grows to adult size. And the last stage of the process is that the end stage nymph becomes the adult cockroach which is ready to fly. The life cycle is now complete and it will begin all over again.
