Best Answer

The feeding methods of insects are usually by plants such as flowers or by warm-blood animals such as birds and mammals. Either of the insects is able to use a sucking tube to suck out nectar from plants or pierce through the skin to suck blood from animals.

What is the common name of Podura aquatica?

Water springtail is the common name of the Podura aquatica.Specifically, the insect is aquatic. It therefore is found on the surfaces of lakes, ponds and puddles. The water surface is a feeding zone by scavenging pollen. The insect's long, flattened tail allows it to jump off the water surface when feeding is done.


How is pollination accomplished?

Usually an insect will get some of the pollen trapped on its body in hairs or whatnot while it's feeding at the flower, and when it moves to another flower (a female one) it can drop the pollen, fertilizing the flower. Pollination is a byproduct of the insect feeding; insects don't set out just to pollinate, but luckily for us, they do so anyway.
