What are the features of an insect?
1. Insects are arthropods, animals that lack backbones and have jointed legs and external skeletons, or exoskeletons. Arthropods include such diverse animals as roaches, millipedes, tarantulas, and lobsters. 2. Insects have three distinct body parts: a head, a thorax, and an abdomen; many other arthropods have either more or fewer body areas. 3. All insects have two antennae and six legs. Most other arthropods have eight or more legs. 4. Almost all insects have wings. No other group of arthropods can fly. Insects are truly amazing. Their tiny size, quick reproduction rate, and ability to fly enable insects to explore and exploit almost every environmental niche imaginable.

Is a daddy long-leg an insect?
NO, Daddy-Long Legs can refer to two types of Arachnid (8-Legged). Arachnids and Insects (6-Legged) are two different classes of Arthropods (meaning "Jointed Leg"), other arthropods include the Decapods (10-Legged) which include crabs, lobsters, and shrimp.
Within the Arachnids, you have: Ticks, Scorpions, Mites, Harvestmen, and Spiders.
One animal referred to as "Daddy Long-Legs" is the Harvestman, which is NOT a spider or an insect, but is a type of arachnid called an Opillione. They do NOT bite, and can, (unlike spiders, eat solid food. Harvestman Daddy-Long Legs are forest dwelling creatures which eat Detritus (decaying material) such as old leaves, old fruit, old mushrooms, and dead animal matter. They are wonderful, beneficial animals.
The other animals referred to as "Daddy Long-Legs" are harmless spiders known as basement spiders, or Pholcids (Order: Araneae, Family: Pholcidae). These spiders are the thin gray spiders in the corners of basements and bathrooms who are often responsible for making cobwebs (probably the only thing considered negative that they can do). They are very cool to play with because their defense is to swirl around and make themselves look blurry so they are hard to see in their messy webs. If you see one, touch it, it will start shaking around and blend in visually with it's web. They catch a lot of bad bugs and are good to keep around if you don't mind the cobwebs. Contrary to popular belief, they do NOT have the strongest venom in the world, nor very strong venom at all, and are quite a shy and harmless kind of spider.
Neither kind of "Daddy Long-Legs" will ever bite a person, and they are both beneficial animals in the Arachnid class. They are NOT insects.

What are 3 structures of a grasshopper that are adaptations for life on dry land?
Spiracles: Small openings along the grasshopper's abdomen that allow for efficient gas exchange without losing too much moisture.
Wax layer: A waterproof coating on the exoskeleton that helps prevent desiccation by reducing water loss through the cuticle.
Hind legs: Adapted for jumping and locomotion on land, allowing the grasshopper to quickly escape predators and move efficiently in their environment.
