So at that stage, instead of having a new skin underneath it that looks like a caterpillar, the next skin is really the cuticle made of chitin of that chrysalis stage.

所以在那个阶段，它们不有一个看起来像毛毛虫的新皮肤，下一层皮肤实际蛹阶段的几丁质制成的角质层。

An insect lays an egg, which changes first into a grub or cater-pillar, then into a pupa or chrysalis, and lastly into an insect.

昆虫产卵, 然后孵化为幼虫或毛虫, 再变成蛹并最终生长为昆虫。

Then it stops feeding, and its body changes into what is called a chrysalis.

然后幼虫就不吃东西了，变成了“茧”，英语chrysalis。

The chrysalis hardens into a protective case, and over the next few weeks the caterpillar inside transforms into a butterfly!

这些茧会变硬足以护它们，在接下来几周，毛毛虫在面变成了蝴蝶！

But to Scarlett, newly emerged from the chrysalis of widowhood, all the war meant was a time of gaiety and excitement.

但，对于刚刚从寡妇蛰居中跑出来的思嘉来说，战争只不过一个愉快和兴奋的时候而已。

My personality was entombed within a seemingly silent body, a vibrant mind hidden in plain sight within a chrysalis.

我的意识像被埋葬在一个看起来寂静的。活跃的内心被蛹束缚起来。

The chrysalis moves. It splits open. The butterfly wiggles out. Its wings are wet and crumpled.

蛹开始动了。它裂开了。蝴蝶扭动着钻出来。它的翅膀湿漉漉、皱巴巴的。

The new layer is called a chrysalis. It is a hard shell. Inside the caterpillar is changing. It stays in the chrysalis for 10 to 14 days.

这新的外层叫做蛹。一个硬壳。面的毛毛虫正在发生变化。它会在蛹待10到14天。

Once they are fully grown, the caterpillars will attach themselves to the underside of a leaf or branch and form a pupa, or chrysalis.

毛毛虫一旦完全长大，就会附着在树叶或树枝的底部，然后形成蛹或者茧。

So yeah, a chrysalis is not a silk sleeping bag that they spin and then crawl into.

的，蛹不一个丝绸睡袋，它们旋转然后爬进去。

They are pupating into a chrysalis, and that's where a lot of changes really happen before they enter the adult stage as an adult butterfly.

它们正在化蛹成蛹，这就在它们作为成年蝴蝶进入成年阶段之前真正发生许多变化的地方。

When the butterfly is ready to emerge, the chrysalis splits open, but the butterfly cannot fly yet.

蝴蝶准备破茧而出时，蛹就会裂开，但这时蝴蝶还不能飞。

And while things are reorganizing and growing inside the chrysalis, the new parts the future butterfly will need are already there on those imaginal discs, growing into their final form.

当新器官在蛹内重组和生长时，未来蝴蝶需要的新部分已经在那些想象的光盘，成长为它们的最终形态。

Now that the caterpillar is done becoming a completely new animal, the adult butterfly is ready to emerge from the chrysalis.

现在毛毛虫已经成为了一种全新的动物，成年蝴蝶已经准备好破茧了。

For instance, instead of hardening their skin into a protective chrysalis, moths do spin their metamorphic sleeping sack out of silk.

例如，飞蛾不将皮肤硬化成护性蛹，而用丝纺出变质的睡袋。

This is the inside of a chrysalis.

这蛹的内部。

I'm quite surprised at how it can turn to chrysalis.

我对它如何变成蛹感到非常惊讶。

When a caterpillar enters the chrysalis, it literally dissolves into a liquid.

当毛毛虫进入蝶蛹时，它实际会溶解成液。

There's still a ton we don't know about how wings form inside the chrysalis.

关于翅膀在蛹内如何形成，我们还有很多不知道的地方。

I'm beginning to eat my way out of the chrysalis.

我开始从茧吃出一条路来。
