What Do You Know About Insects? What is your definition of an insect? Do you think that all ''bugs'' are insects why or why not? Now lets take a look at some interesting creatures...

MONKEY GRASSHOPPER YES! A monkey grasshopper is indeed an insect. Characteristics we noticed: A pair of wings Three pairs of legs Three segmented body parts Antennae

BRUSH-FOOTED BUTTERFLY List the characteristics you notice about the Brush-Footed Butterfly Now make a guess… Yes or No ?

VESPID PAPER WASP List the characteristics you notice about the Vespid Paper Wasp Now make a guess… Yes or No ?

SCORPION List the characteristics you notice about the Scorpion Now make a guess… Yes or No ?

Scorpion NO! Scorpions are definitely not insects! Characteristics we noticed: Two segmented body parts Four pairs of legs Two pairs of pincers Long tail

Why are some creature labeled as insects while other are not? The reason is that there is a very clear definition of what and insect is and there are certain characteristics a creature must have to be called a real insect.

Do you notice any similarities of characteristics between the bugs that are insects? How are they different from the ones that are not insects? Based on this comparison try to make your own definition for “Insect”.

The Definition of Insect An insect is any animal of the class Insecta, that has a body divided into three segments (head, thorax, and abdomen), and has three pairs of legs and most have a pairs of wings.

Now we can understand why the millipede, tarantula, and the scorpion are not insects.
