The insects are well-adapted to living on land, thanks to * an exoskeleton which is impervious to water and thus prevents loss of water from the body; * a system of tracheal tubes which penetrates every portion of the body, taking oxygen to, and carbon dioxide from, every cell; * paired, jointed appendages ** those in the head used for feeding. In the grasshopper (shown here), the mouth parts are adapted to cutting and chewing plant material. ** those in the thorax used for locomotion * wings (insects were the first animals to fly); * internal fertilization and embryonic development within a waterproof egg; * excretion of nitrogenous wastes as uric acid. Uric acid requires very little water for its excretion and what little it does need is reclaimed in the rectum. So insects deposit wastes that are practically dry.
