A caterpillar has about 4,000 muscles, while a human being has approximately 600 muscles. Although the number of muscles in a caterpillar is greater, their muscle structure and function are quite different from those in humans. Caterpillars primarily use their muscles for movement and feeding, while human muscles are involved in a wide range of complex movements and functions.
