What is the difference between a spider eye and a fly eye?

A spider eye typically has multiple simple eyes (called ocelli) that can detect light and dark, while a fly eye has complex compound eyes composed of many individual lenses that can detect motion and detail.

Do cells have brains?

Brains are collections of nerve cells that comprise the main structure in an organism's nervous system. The brain's function is to regulate and coordinate processes distributed throughout the body of the organism that contains it.

Since a cell cannot contain a nervous system (because it would itself be a collection of many specialized cells) a cell cannot have a brain.

In some respects, a cell's nucleus performs brain-like functions. After receiving chemical messages from outside the cell and transcribing those messages according to the code represented by the cell's DNA, the nucleus can transmit messages that govern the activity of the cell by changing the chemical activity within the cell (for example, by calling for the production of certain proteins).

How long would it take for a spider to spin a web?

There are related questions with some good answers. The answer depends on the type of spider. Some spiders that build orderly webs can do so in 15-20 minutes or so. Others take longer. Many don't build orderly webs and they work on their webs from time to time. some build a new web every day. Others don't. You're probably thinking of an "orb"-type web when you ask the question. One related question elicited an answer of less than an hour. I've seen them done in significantly less than that, but i bet that's a good upper limit. Some spiders do not build webs at all.

What type of organism is the grand daddy long leg?

Daddy long legs or Harvestmen come from the class of Arachnida and the Order Opiliones. They are not actually spiders and that can be told by their round bodies that have no constriction or "waist line". They lack silk-spinning organs and their abdomens are segemented. They do, however have four pairs of walking legs and similar jaw and leg sensory structure. They also do not carry venom. The name daddy long legs can refer to several species or differing classifications. These are: * Harvestman - This species is not a true spider although it is classed as Arachnida, as it has eight legs. It is commonly called either "daddy long legs" or "grand daddy long legs" in the USA and is found worldwide, with over 6,400 species. There is a myth about these creatures being the most venomous of spiders, but its jaws are too small to bite, however this is a complete fallacy, as none of these species have venom glands or fangs. They are completely harmless and are not poisonous. * Crane fly - These are typically known as daddy long legs in the UK. They are a long legged flying insect that can be found all over the world. There are over 14,000 identified species. * Cellar Spider - This is the only true spider known by the name "daddy long legs". In fact all members of the family Pholcidae are group with this name. They are found commonly all over the world and again are easily recognised by their long legs. Again the myth says they are the most venomous spider in the world, but this is again untrue for the same reason as above.
