Manduca sexta Life Cycle

Irma F.Lopez -Tucson,Arizona

 

Directions

Make a large chart on poster board or butcher paper and attach it to the wall or a bulletin board. For each stage in your Manduca's life, draw how it looks and use tally marks to keep track of the number of days spent at each stage. You may wish to record its length, weight and other observations as well.
