Answer

LARVA

This word comes from Latin, where it originally meant a ghost or mask, perhaps because the early form of an insect looks nothing like its adult version. It refers to the juvenile stage of insects and other creatures that undergo complete metamorphosis. Common examples include caterpillars, grubs, and maggots.
