Flies have laid eggs on the body of a dead opossum. The fly eggs hatched in the larvae you see here. Soon the larvae stopped growing and did not develop into flies. Explain why this happened.

Atoxins in dead animal - toxins absorbed into fly larvae - larvae died
Bran out of food - cell division stopped - growth and development did not continue
Cran out of food - meiosis among cells stopped - growth and development did not continue
Dmutations in the larvae cells - mutations caused cell death - growth and development did not continue
