MANDIBLE
Hemiptera, or true bugs, like aphids and cicadas, are known for this. Mosquitos too, belonging to the Diptera, together with flies! And even some species of moth have developed a taste for blood and piercing mouthparts.

The category (taxon) for arthropods is called a phylum, a major division in the classification scheme for living things. Arthropods have segmented bodies, an exoskeleton made from chitin, and jointed appendages.

The three main types of insect mouth parts are chewing mouthparts, sucking mouthparts, and siphoning mouthparts. Chewing mouthparts are used for biting and chewing solid food, sucking mouthparts are used for sucking up liquids, and siphoning mouthparts are specialized for feeding on fluids like nectar.
Not all arthropods have chewing mouthparts but for those that do: Mandibles: For shearing, piercing, and processing food. Labra (singular labrum): Functions as an "upper-lip." Maxillae: Ancestral biramous (two part) appendages for manipulating and tasting food. Maxillae can be fused or modified into derived structures. In some insects the second maxillae are fused to form a lower lip (labrum).
No. A grasshopper only has chewing mouthparts.
Mandibles are typically paired mouthparts found in arthropods and some other invertebrates, often used for grasping and cutting food. They are usually located at the front of the head and are adapted for chewing, biting, or manipulating food.
A grasshopper has chewing mouthparts, called mandibles, that allow it to consume plant material. These strong mouthparts are used to tear and grind food before swallowing it.
It is both. Honey bees have both chewing and sucking mouthparts.
Caddisflies resemble small hairy moths. Adult caddisflies have atrophied mouthparts and do not feed, while those in larval stage have chewing mouthparts.
Arthropods have specialized mouthparts that they use to chew, pierce, or suck their food depending on their species. Some arthropods have mandibles for biting and chewing, while others have proboscises for sucking up liquids. They may also use enzymes to break down food externally before ingesting it.

Grasshoppers have two mandibles. These are the insect's mouthparts that are used for biting and chewing food.
As living things grow in their life, their bodies grow and adapt to many things. A grasshoppers mouthparts are adapted to chewing fibrous plants.
