How would spraying a yard with chemical pesticides to control insects be most likely to affect the diversity of insects found in it?
There would be fewer species of insects and fewer insects in general in the yard.
Is a butterfly an insect?
Yes, they are (by definition) considered insects. They are in the insect order Lepidoptera and are classified with insects because they have a head, thorax, and abdomen. They also have three pairs of walking legs, antennae and a pair of wings-which are the characteristics of most insects.
Are butterflies vertebrate or invertebrate?
Invertebrates. Butterflies are what is classified as an insect. Insects have no vertebrae; instead they have an exoskeleton.
Humans have inadvertently promoted the evolution of insects that are resistant to insecticides by?
Insects became resistant because the insecticides were used on the continuously. Most insects will die at first, but there will be some that have the right genetics to resist that insecticide. When that happens the insect will the favorable gene reproduces and creates more insects that are resistant. Humans promoted this evolution by using the same insecticide on the insects.
Are there fungi that eat insects?
Yes there are insects that eat fungi, but fungi can eat some insects as well. Follow this link and you see that ants can get eaten alive by fungi. http://www.tightloop.com/ants/whatEatsAnts.htm

How can you use the scientific method to explain why insects seem to suddenly appear in flour fruit and cornmeal?
1. Create a hypothesis regarding why the insects seem to suddenly appear. 2. Create an experiment to test that hypothesis. 3. Collect and analyze the results of the experiment. 4. Finally, draw conclusions whether the results support your hypothesis. For example, a hypothesis might be that insects appear in flour, fruit, and cornmeal because they hatch from eggs, which were deposited when the observer wasn't looking. To test that hypothesis, a sample experiment may be to place flour, fruit, or cornmeal in two separate jars. In one jar, put a lid on it. Leave the other jar open. For a week or so, look at the jars daily and write down whether you see insects. If you do, jot that down. These are your results. After a week or so, you can look at the results and compare them. If insects appear in both jars, the experiment did not support the hypothesis. (NOTE: that doesn't mean the hypothesis is wrong; only that that experiment did not support it.) If insects appear only in the closed jar, then you could conclude that your hypothesis was supported by the experiment. Again, that doesn't mean your hypothesis is right; only that it was supported by the experiment. Based on your conclusions, you can make a new hypothesis, which could further refine the cause of the insects.
What is a good hypothesis for insects light vs heat?
A hypothesis is a prediction on what you think will happen. For experiments on insects being attracted to light or heat, a hypothesis could be that insects are attracted to light over heat.
What hypothesis can you make to explain the ultimate source of energy for fishes and insects?
The food that a fish or insect eats gives them the ultimate source of energy. Fish and insects can be carnivores or herbivores.

How long can an ant live without?
An experiment once showed an ant lived without air for eight days (The Junio Book of Insects, p.85)
When you do an experiment with animals or insects you should never?
most experiments on animals are harmless even if they look bad. animals feel less pain then us and are very oblivious. insects can not feel pain at all. and there brain is too small to know whats happening
