Nymph
Imagine you're trying to assemble a piece of furniture, and halfway through, it already looks like the final product but still lacks some screws and adjustments. This is similar to a nymph, the immature form of an insect, which looks like the adult but isn't fully developed yet. Just like the partially assembled furniture that resembles the finished piece but needs final touches to function properly, a nymph mirrors the adult insect in appearance and basic function, awaiting its final growth stages to become a fully mature insect.
