different arrangement of the same constituents in the
molecule.

Especially, that form of sexual reproduction in which an
embryo undergoes a series of marked changes of external
form, as the chrysalis stage, pupa stage, etc., in

is usually impossible, but they ultimately pass into final
and sexually developed forms, from the union of which
organisms are produced which pass through the same cycle
of changes. See Transformation.
