The document describes the life cycle of a butterfly, which includes four stages: egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa, and adult. The female butterfly lays eggs on plant leaves, which hatch into caterpillars that eat leaves. The caterpillars then form a cocoon and undergo a pupal stage before emerging as adult butterflies, which feed on flower nectar using a proboscis.
