Question
Hi, I'm writing my final biology examination tomorrow and can't find any notes on the advantages or disadvantages of the two specified type of metamorphosis below. Would you please help me with these questions.   

1. what are the advantages and disadvantages of complete metamorphosis?
2. what are the advantages and disadvantages of incomplete metamorphosis?

Answer
I really do not know how to respond to advantage/disadvantage questions Bradley. They make no sense to me. The metamorphosis of an organisms is the result of the evolutionary process. It is all based upon advantage. If disadvantageous the organism would not survive.
I do not know if this will help you with your exam but it is the only response I can make. Personally if this is a test question it is a dumb question
