Humans kill their own species.
No, not all insects reproduce sexually. Some insects, such as aphids and stick insects, can reproduce asexually through parthenogenesis, where females can produce offspring without mating with a male.
The female red-back spider sometimes kills and eats the male after mating. This behavior is thought to provide the female with extra nutrients for producing eggs and also removes potential competition for resources from the male.
The male animal mounts the female. That process is called mating.
One reason is that the life cycle of most insects is very short. There may be 1-15 generations in a year (As opposed to 1 every 14-20ish years in humans). Another reason is many insects have hundreds to thousands of offspring every reproductive cycle. Let's assume we're talking about an insect with 10 generations per year, that they exist in a 1:1 male to female ratio (which is common in insects), that each mating pair can produce 1,000 eggs and that we start with 1 mating pair. At generation 1, we have 1 mating pair. These 2 insects make 1000 babies. At Generation 2 we have 500 mating pairs (1000/2 because of 1:1 ratio). These 500 mating pairs make 500x1000 (500,000) babies. At Generation 3, which isn't even 6 months into the first year, we have 250,000 mating pairs that have 250000x1000 babies. Since each egg may contain mutations, you can see why insect populations can evolve quickly.
The long tube like body part on a male animal that it uses when mating is called a penis. The penis is part of the reproductive system in animals.
The Praying Mantis sometimes kills the male during mating. The Black Widow spider (which is not an insect) may also do this.
As soon as spawning has finished she should be removed. The male will chase the female and kill her otherwise.
A male stick insect will not lay eggs. However, a female stick insect is parthenogenetically, and can lay eggs without mating with a male.
No, not all insects reproduce sexually. Some insects, such as aphids and stick insects, can reproduce asexually through parthenogenesis, where females can produce offspring without mating with a male.
The female will do something with her fins and let the male know but when they do mat you have to be right there when it does because the male will kill the female but not the eggs. when the eggs hatch you have to take the male out or he will kill the baby's.
Indian stick insects are the best known of all stick insects. Males are typically smaller than females and are more aggressive, especially during mating.
In some species the male spider seems to sacrifice itself after mating. In some species the female spider is very likely to try to catch and eat the male after mating. In many species there are special adaptations that help the male escape from the female after mating. In some species the males are tolerated and may live in little webs near to and perhaps attached to the web of the female.
Yes flowers can trick insects into mating. I have read that they insects for years have been avoiding having sex with them!
if a male is separeted during mating it can die
Mating of a female and a male to produce eggs that hatch into newborns is the way that insects make baby insects. The mating may be one-time, as in the case of Luna moths that lack mouthparts and live a little more than a week in order to breed and deposit orphaned eggs that will hatch into orphaned larvae termed caterpillars. It tends to be more frequent in southerly than in northerly habitats.
No, they do not. They try to swim away as soon as possible because after mating, the male will try to protect it's territory and the female who seemed attractive is now an invader.
The mating season for male cats typically occurs in the spring and summer months.
