Presentation transcript:

There are 3 basic parts to an insect - the head, thorax (the central portion of the body) and abdomen (the ball typically seen on many insects). The head of an insect is where the main receptor parts are located. Typically, you will find the eyes, mouthparts constituting the mouth and biting parts (which also serve to guide food into the mouth), and a pair of antennae, which are sensory organs that allow the insect to use it's smell, taste, touch and 'hearing' abilities The thorax, or mid-section, typically holds the wings (if the insect can fly), usually two pairs (for a total of 4 wings) and 3 sets of legs (for a total of 6 legs ). The abdomen makes up the last, and probably the most recognizable, part of the insect. This section Of the body stores the bug's digestive system, and sting organs (if applicable).

There are three types of bees in the hive – Queen, Worker and Drone. The queen may lay or even 1,500 eggs each day during her 3 or 4 year lifetime. This daily egg production may equal her own weight. She is constantly fed and groomed by attendant worker bees. Honey bees fly at 15 miles per hour.

Houseflies find sugar with their feet, which are 10 million times more sensitive than human tongues.

Did you know…… The body of an insect is does not mature like the body of a human does. The body of an insect must 'molt' or shed it's skin in an effort to grow. Once the insect has shed it's old skin, it then takes in air or water into it's new skin to 'blow' it up to it's new size.

Insects don’t make noises with their mouth, but by rapidly moving their wings…..

There are more insects in one square mile of rural land than there are human beings on the entire earth.

After eating, a housefly regurgitates its food and then eats it again

Butterflies taste with their feet

Insects would outweigh all animals if put on a scale.

Butterflys cannot fly if there body temperature is less than 86 degrees.

Crickets’ ears are located on the knees of their front legs.. Crickets can see different directions at the same time

Monarch butterflies fly 2,000 miles or more to the cool moist Oyamel fir forests in central Mexico. They do this to escape the coming cold, snowy weather.

A ladybug's bright colors warn predators to stay away.
