Most insects have head, thorax, abdomen as their body segments.
No, insects do not have their legs on their abdomen. Insects typically have three pairs of legs attached to their thorax, which is the middle segment of their body, not the abdomen. The abdomen is the posterior segment and primarily houses the digestive and reproductive organs.
In centipedes, there is one pair of legs in each body segments. In millipedes, there are 2 pairs of legs in each segment. Centipedes are carnivores with poisons bites. Millipedes are detrivores that release toxic chemicals.
the answer is that spider and a hover fly are both insects
No, a centipede is not an insect; it belongs to the class Chilopoda, while insects are part of the class Insecta. Centipedes have a distinct body structure with one pair of legs per body segment, whereas insects typically have three body segments and six legs. Additionally, centipedes are carnivorous and have venomous claws, which differentiates them further from insects.
Three
the abdomen is in itself a segment. all insects have 3 body segments. head thorax abdomen
No. By definition, all spiders have eight legs. Insects have a varying number of legs (think of a centipede and millipede), but always an even number.
No, a beetle has three parts of the beetles body!
Six (6) is the number of legs on a butterfly.Specifically, scientists consider butterflies insects. All insects have three pairs of two legs each, for a total of six. The frontal pair closest to the head may not always be visible on some butterflies.
That'd be insects
Centipedes are not classified as insects; they belong to the class Chilopoda, which is distinct from the class Insecta. While both groups are arthropods, centipedes have a different body structure, including a more elongated body with numerous segments and one pair of legs per body segment, unlike insects which have three main body parts and six legs. This classification highlights the diversity within arthropods, where centipedes are more closely related to other myriapods than to insects.
Just like other insects they breath through spiracles in their abdomen. Since they are relatively large insects diffusion alone is not sufficient hence they visibly contract their body in order to 'exhale'. Every segment on the abdomen has two spiracles; the ones in the second segment are also used to produce the hissing sound. Since insects have no blood circulation, miniscule tubes connected to the spiracles provide cells directly with oxygen.
