Caterpillars

The Atlas moth caterpillar holds the record for the largest caterpillar, reaching lengths of about 4-5 inches. Its size allows it to grow into one of the world's largest moths with a wingspan of up to 10 inches.

A butterfly does not spin a cocoon, it's pupa is called a chrysalis. A moth, however, spins a protective silk case which is known as a cocoon.

A caterpillar spins either a cocoon or a chrysalis depending on its breed. After being incased it will be its transfirmation into a butterfly.

The time spent in the chrysalis is different for each species of Butterfly, but when the metormorphosis is complete the new butterfly will break its way out of the casing of the chrysalis and spread its new wings for the first time. The butterfly will genrally cling onto the side of the chrysalis for an hour or so, to allow their wings to dry out, and enable them to fly for the first time.

The time that a lava spends in pupation may be brief, as with the Monarch butterfly who only stay in a chrysalis for 2 weeks. However, some species enter into a dormant state when they start pupation and stay in this stage until the appropriate season. They mostly stay dormant through the winter months or during the dry season in the tropics.

Yes, caterpillars can be found in rainforests as they are a diverse group of insects that inhabit various ecosystems. They play a significant role in the rainforest food web as herbivores, feeding on leaves and plant material.

Yes, many insects feed on plants as part of their diet. Some insects, like caterpillars and grasshoppers, are herbivores and primarily eat plants for sustenance. However, not all insects consume plants; some are carnivorous and feed on other insects or animals.

Vitamins belong to the group of organic compounds essential for various bodily functions. They are classified into two groups: water-soluble vitamins (such as B vitamins and vitamin C) and fat-soluble vitamins (such as vitamins A, D, E, and K).

The ginger garlic paste may have turned green after grinding in a stainless steel jar because of a reaction between the garlic, ginger, and the metal in the bowl. This is also why a person should never mix mayonnaise with other foods in a stainless steel bowl. The acid mixes with the metal to form a toxic substance.

Coral begins as a free-floating larva which settles on a hard surface. It then forms a colony and grows into a polyp, which reproduces asexually to create more polyps. These polyps secrete calcium carbonate to build a skeleton, creating the structure we know as a coral reef.

As long as you remain on title and deed, you can put the mortgage note under someone else name and still be considered an owner of the property. In fact a 1% owner of a property can hold a mortgage note legally.

when plants don't have water, they wilt

Oils belong to the lipid group, which are organic compounds composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. They are non-polar and hydrophobic in nature, making them insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Oils are commonly used for cooking, as fuel, and in skincare products.

The spider you are describing is most likely the "Theridion grallator," also known as the happy face spider. It is found in Hawaii and its unique markings on its back resemble a smiling face. These spiders are harmless to humans and are known for their distinct appearance.

It is not a caterpillar -- it is the larvae of a June beetle: "June beetle larvae are easy to identify because they crawl upside down on their backs with their feet upward." Source: Darrell Blackwelder, Salisbury Post, September 25, 2009.

They sleep near their nearest food source usually. So you'll often find them by a leaf. But you usually wouldn't see one because they will usually blend in with the leaves and their surroundings. So keep a look out.

Insects with Chironomous larvae are commonly known as non-biting midges or freshwater midges. These larvae are often found in freshwater environments like ponds, lakes, and wetlands.

Worms come in three groups: roundworms (nematodes, long featureless body), flatworms (flat) and ringworms (segmented like earthworms). Insect larvae can be legless and segmented like ringworms (maggots for example), but they're never as long and thin, and they have clear mouthparts when looked at up close.

Most insect larvae have legs, however. Grubs (beetle larvae) have six at the front (think of a ladybug larva). Caterpillars have six real legs and many stubby pseudolegs behind these. None of them really look like worms. ^^

Furthermore worms belong to one of the three worm phyla (Nematoda, Platyhelminthes, Annelida) and insects are all Arthropoda.

Lunar moth caterpillars primarily feed on the leaves of white birch, sweetgum, hickory, walnut, and sumac trees. These plants are important food sources for the caterpillars as they provide the nutrients necessary for their development and growth. Supporting these plant species can help sustain lunar moth populations.

No, a 2.5L engine would not directly fit in place of a 3.9L engine in a 1990 Dodge Dakota without significant modifications. The engine mounts, wiring harness, computer system, exhaust system, and other components would need to be modified to accommodate the different engine size. It is recommended to consult a mechanic or engine swap specialist for guidance.

Since degrees Brix is equal to percent sugar (or sucrose), find the Brix value of a drink containing 23 grams of sugar, divide 23 by the number of total grams of liquid contained in the drink, then multiply by 100 to get the percent (or Brix value).
