The stage-specific programmed cell death of cells of the larval midgut, during histolysis of the larval organ. A biological process by which an animal physically develops after birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal's form or structure. Examples include the change from tadpole to frog, and the change from larva to adult. An example of this is found in Drosophila melanogaster. The process, occurring during instar larval or pupal development, by which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form. The breakdown of tissues; usually, if not always, accompanied by cell death, followed by the complete dissolution of dead tissue. A biological process whose specific outcome is the progression of a cell over time from an initial condition to a later condition. Cell death resulting from activation of endogenous cellular processes. The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the cell over time, from its formation to the mature structure. Cell development does not include the steps involved in committing a cell to a specific fate. The activation of endogenous cellular processes that result in the death of a cell as part of its development. The stage-specific break down of the larval midgut during Drosophila metamorphosis, to allow replacement of larval structures by tissues and structures that form the adult fly.
