The larval xenomorph is weak and must be allowed to grow before it can fight.

The larval stage of the xenomorph is aptly named 'chestburster.' Eventually it will become too large to live inside its host any longer and burst out of their body, killing them. Inside the host, the embryo copies part of its DNA, then begins growing.

The facehugger will leave the embryo inside the stomach of a host, and then fall off and die. All pets except Ian are too small to support an embryo and so they cannot be implanted. The facehuggers can be placed onto the face of a human or if called will jump on their own.

The facehugger is not a true xenomorph, instead it carries half of its mother's genetic code (all dominant genes) and is used to more or less mate with other living creatures, usually humans. From the egg, the next stage will emerge, called a facehugger. In order to get the other half of their genetic code they implant embryos within other life forms and use their DNA. Queens can lay eggs, but these eggs cannot develop into adults on their own. Xenomorphs are all female, but still reproduce asexually. This egg takes five minutes to develop, at which point it will automatically hatch. Xenomorphs start life as an egg laid by a queen. In comparison to Earth species, xenomorphs are closest to parasitic wasps that live in colonies with queens and require another lifeform to gestate inside. They are intelligent and capable of speaking to one another via a hivemind channel with :a. With black carapaces and wicked sharp claws, powerful night vision and the ability to see people through walls, xenomorphs are extremely dangerous. Aliens, also known as Xenomorphs to differentiate them from the general term, are extraterrestrial lifeforms that use other living beings as a host during their life cycle.
