Answer

A grasshopper is active in the day and a cricket is active in the night.

Crickets and grasshoppers look similar, but there are differences. A big difference is that they belong to different families.

The grasshopper is an insect of the suborder Caelifera in the order Orthoptera.

Crickets, family Gryllidae, are insects somewhat related to grasshoppers and more closely related to katydids or bush crickets (family Tettigoniidae). They tend to be nocturnal and are often confused with grasshoppers because they have a similar body structure including jumping hind legs. The bugs of Caelifera usually have rather short antennae while Ensiferan Orthopterans have longer ones. This is a useful way to differentiate between the two suborders even if some Ensiferans like mole crickets have short, grasshopper- like antennae. Kingdom: Animalia

Compare and contrast the support systems of cicadas and sea urchins?

Well, honey, cicadas and sea urchins both have support systems, but they're as different as night and day. Cicadas rely on their exoskeleton for structure and protection, while sea urchins have an endoskeleton made of calcium carbonate plates. So, in a nutshell, cicadas wear their support on the outside, while sea urchins keep it all on the inside.


What is the difference between a locust and cicada?

Cicadas are in the order Homoptera, most closely related to plant lice and leafhoppers. Cicadas lay eggs in slits in twigs; annual species hatch and mature on their host trees and sing loudly during hot summer days. Periodical cicadas drop to the ground after hatching and spend anywhere from a few to 17 years as nymphs feeding on tree roots underground before maturing to adults. "Locust" is a general, colloquial term that usually refers to migratory grasshoppers of the order Orthoptera, but is sometimes applied to other insects of the order, including crickets and katydids.
