  1. Egg: The female mosquito lays eggs in water.

  2. Larva: Eggs hatch into larvae, commonly called wrigglers, which live in water.

  3. Pupa: The larva undergoes metamorphosis and transforms into a pupa, also known as a tumbler.

  4. Imago: The pupa matures into the adult mosquito, known as the imago.

• The process of metamorphosis from larva to pupa to imago occurs over a period of several days to weeks, depending on environmental conditions.
