Praying Mantis

they adapt by leaving or die why yall ask people do it your self okay

No They are born from an egg that is layed by a mother praying mantis.

Yes, all insects have exoskeletons.

A producer (also known as an autotroph) is an organism that is able to make complex chemical compounds (i.e, food) from sources of energy in the form of light or heat. Plants, which use sunlight, or tube worms, which use heat from deep sea vents, are examples of producers.

A first level consumer (also called primary consumers) gain their energy from eating producers. This category includes herbivores such as deer, elephants, horses, etc.

A second level consumer (also called a secondary consumer) gains it's energy through predation, or the catching and eating of other animals. Praying Mantids fall in this category. Mantids eat mainly insects, although they have been known to eat small amphibians, reptiles, and even the occasional hummingbird.

A decomposer is an organism that gains it's energy from dead or rotting material. Since Praying Mantids eat primarily live prey and not pre-dead carcasses, they are not considered decomposers.

They don't. Egg sacks are dormant during the winter and hatch after a few weeks of warm weather.

The plural of praying mantis is praying mantises or praying mantes. The plural of grasshopper is grasshoppers.

No, a praying mantis is an insect.
no its a bug! how would it be an amphibian anyways???

Through the spiracles on their abdomen.

Yes they do. they eat the praying mantis to feed their young birds.

sometimes, if it comes from africa, then maybe!!

Yes, I have one in a cage and i just saw it lay an egg sack. I'm expecting 100 little insect babies now...
Yes, praying mantises lay eggs.

Count the segments on their abdomen. If the abdomen has 6 segments, it's a female. If it has 8, is a male.

Females also have wider abdomens than males.

The colors do not matter. The color only helps determine what species it is.

No, instead, it has an exoskeleton [the outer shell].

No, A praying mantis has an exoskeleton. they don't need the heavy duty reinforcement and support that some of the bigger creatures need.

It really depends on the species. Some mantises of the same species may be green or brown, depending upon the climate and surroundings. If the area is humid or wet, they'll most likely be green.

The body of a mantis is divided into three parts: the abdomen, head, and thorax. The praying mantis' head has two antennae, compound eyes, and a mouth, These insects also have six jointed legs, two forelegs, and wings.

The bite of a praying mantis is not

harmful to human as they are not poisonous. If a child is bitten by a praying mantis simply wash the area of the bite and reassure the child that they will be fine.

up to 4 inches in the northwest

-It varies. Some are small, about an inch or so like in my backyard or the flower-dwelling types, and some can get big like the 4 inches mentioned above. I think some can even get a foot long, though I'm not sure.

The Praying Mantis have a triangular head used for turning 180 degrees to scan it's surroundings. That is one adaptation.

Praying mantis will eat fruit fliys, aphids, and any small bug you can find out dores exept for spiders. adult praying mantes will eat flies, small roches, and any other slitly larger insect you can find.

well... when a female and a male mantis mate and are "done" IF the female is like starving( only when starving) she actually will eat her mate. the male will not eat the female unless also starving but that is more unlikely then a female eating a male.

if you keep two mantis's in one cage or habitat, one might eat the other.

Praying Mantids can lose their limbs, especially in the process of incomplete metamorphosis. If the environment is too dry they can have trouble shedding their skin and can lose a limb in the process. If this happens, YES it is possible for a mantis to re grow the lost limb, but only the next time it moults. This means that if a mantis is a fully established adult, (if it has developed wings), it will NOT be able to re grow the lost limb.

Praying mantises (mantodea or mantes) is an order of insects with over 2,400 species in 15 families worldwide. The largest family is Mantidae.

Yes you can, just make sure you keep it in a cage and look up a care sheet if you want to keep o\it. Please use a cage because I don't want your mother to get mad! You can take it out of the cage if you want to, but be careful because you might hurt it accidentally.

praying mantis makes good pets. make sure you feed them good are they might try to run away.

Occasionally. Mostly their diet consists of insects, but some of the larger species eat small rodents, fish, birds, lizards and frogs.
