1. Only insects have wings
2. Insects have six legs
3. Only insects undergo complete metamorphosis
4. Insects have 3 distinct body sections
5. Insects have antennae
6. Insects have external mouthparts
7. Only insects have compound eyes
7 is the lucky number- if it meets at least 3 of these criteria, it is definitely an insect.
These are their reproductive systems that enable them to lay eggs. They can lay many eggs! Stick insects can lay up to 25 - 200 eggs. Mosquitoes can lay 100 - 300 eggs at a time! Those that lay a lower number of eggs may lay eggs more than once in their life cycle. :D
Insects belong to phylum arthropoda which is the largest of all the phylum's in the animal kingdom. Insects have a cutaneous exoskeleton, that protects the softer vital parts of their bodies. Most insects do not have a circulatory system.

The most populated animal more than humans are ants
Insects outnumber humans by far more than 100 million to one. There are well over one million species of insects that have been cataloged.
insects eat a variety of small animals but their favorite is your mom
All insects have three parts: head, thorax and abdomen.
Several biological characteristics have contributed to the success of insects. For example, they have the ability to fly at great speeds and distances, they have a small, lightweight exoskeleton that needs few nutrients and they can reproduce rapidly.
ants
Actually, it is the many species of insects that outnumber the animals.

Members of the class, Insecta have:two pairs of wings,three pairs of jointed legs,tri-segmented bodies: head, thorax, and abdomen,hard exoskeletons,a pair of compound eyes,a pair of antennae,bilateral symmetry.Additional Information:The first three characteristics listed, might be considered distinguishing. While insects display all these characteristics, not all are distinguishing. Humans, for instance have bilateral symmetry and a pair of eyes.There are other, more subtle characteristics. Also, there are some apparent exceptions that can be observed at certain stages of development. The process of metamorphosis that insects undergo in their development to adulthood, explain these.Insects belong to the Phylum: Arthropoda, Subphylum: Mandibulata, and Class: Insecta. They are the most diverse class of animals and the most numerous, by individual and by species. More than a million species have been described. Estimates range from 5 to 9 million, of species that have yet to be discovered and described.
Because there are more species of insect than anything else on this planet and they outnumber all other species and can live in any environment
it can play dead
Difficult to put an exact number on the amount - however... There are roughly 7 billion people on the planet, and insects outnumber humans by at least 1000 to 1. As far as species, there are up to 10 million species of insects, and many more bug-type animals in the centipede and arachnid families.
Yes it is true
They express the characteristics inherent to arthropods. All insects are arthropods. Not all arthropods are insects.
