Insect wings are quite different from bat and bird wings in various ways. The insect wings are quite rigid and this makes them less efficient in flying when compared to birds and bats.
Insect wings are part of their exoskeleton - I've found sources stating they evolved from external gills in very small proto-insects that barely needed the extra surface to leave the ground, and the wings became bigger and more muscular from there.
Bird wings are technically arms, with the same skeletal structure as our arms, or any vertebrate forelimb. They evolved from the arms of theropod dinosaurs. In insects, this would mean wings evolved from one of their pairs of legs, but insect wings have nothing to do with legs.
Their flight methods are very different as well. Birds flap their wings, much like a theropod dinosaur would have moved its arms during hunting or balancing. Insect wings move in rapid swimming motions, often in '8' patterns to create lift with both upstroke and downstroke. The only bird I know of that does this is the hummingbird.
Yes. The wings of birds and insects are different in both structure and composition.
Birds' wings have bones and feathers, where butterflies' wings are made of other things. Butterflies are also insects and not really related to birds at all.
insect wings are delicate and.............. whatever u call it, 'see through', and bird's wings have feathers
so there
Insects wings are not supported by bones as it does happen in birds.
because it dose not have feathers
No, since it is an Arachnid and not a Bird or an Insect.
Analogous structures are features of two different species that are similar in how the function, but the structure of the two features is different. The wings of an insect and the wings of a bird are analogous structures.
A bird is different from an insect in the fact that they have different bodies. For example, a bird is considered to be a vertebrate. Whereas, an insect is an invertebrate
By opening their wings like a bird or insect of course. Obvious!!
a bird has hollow bones and an incect has an exo skeleton on the outside of their body!
a flying insect such as a beetle or lepidopteran such as a moth or butterfly
the birds wing is hairy and the insects wing is delicate
no,because caterpillar does not have wings and it is an insect.
Analogous is an adjective meaning corresponding, yet often dissimilar. In biology, the term analogous structures refers to structures in different organisms that serve the same function, yet evolved in different ways. An example of this would be bird wings, insect wings, and bat wings. They all are used to fly, yet they achieve flight in different ways.
There are a few different similarities between the wing of a butterfly and the wing of a bat. Both are used to fly for example.
the bird have wings while the rocket have none
Nope. Flies always have 2 wings, and some insects like silverfish have none. However even insects with 4 wings can get one torn off by a bird.
