How long can an unfed female black widow live in a glass jar with tiny holes in lid?

An unfed female black widow spider can typically live for several weeks to a few months without a food source, depending on environmental conditions such as temperature and humidity. However, it is not recommended to keep them in a glass jar with tiny holes in the lid as it may not provide adequate ventilation or space for the spider's well-being.

What kind of hairy Black spider has a white stripe and spots on it's back and is one inch in diameter and located in central Washington State?

Jumping Spiders is the nickname for an entire family of spiders (the Salticidae) and they occur all over the entire country and world. In North America alone, there are almost 400 species. The species can vary by location, but every location has jumping spiders. For your question, check into the genus Phidippus(maybe google that name and look through images). -Mandy

Your upper body is very fatty and your legs are too skinny why is this?

Some women are just built that way. Usually, women gain weight mostly around their butt and thighs. But for some women it's the opposite: their upper body gains weight while their legs stay thin.

I don't think there's any way to change it. That's just the way your body naturally is.

But you could start working out, which would at least take off the extra weight on your upper body. I would do a lot of cardio exercise (walking, running, biking, rollerblading) to get your weight down. Biking and rollerblading especially will build up your thigh muscles, which can help make your upper body look slimmer.

If you can afford it, I would also join a gym, and do a lot of lower body weight training. Specifically leg presses and glute presses. All of the leg muscle exercises. Women's muscles will not bulk up like a man's, but weight training could help to sort of transfer some of the weight you're carrying from fat in your upper body to muscle in your lower body.

Don't completely neglect your arms muscles, though. Do light weight training on your arms: just a few dozen reps of bicep curls, tricep extensions, and shoulder lifts.

Why is a water strider important to wetlands?

Water striders play a key role in wetland ecosystems by serving as predators to control insect populations, such as mosquitoes. They also help to break down organic matter through feeding activities, contributing to nutrient cycling in the ecosystem. Additionally, they can serve as indicators of water quality, as they are sensitive to pollution and environmental changes.

Is the hit group Mary Jane GIRLS still alive?

Why are there no dangerous spiders in the UK?

There was never any evolutionary pressure, that made more potent venom more advantageous.

Producing more powerful venom has a metabolic 'cost' to the spider, ie, it takes more energy. Because spiders in the UK prey on small insects, stronger venom gives no advantage, it's a waste of energy. Natural selection therefore favours spiders with a less potent, more energy efficient venom.

Up to how long can a spider plant grow?

Spider Plants are no different than any other plants. They will live as long as they have ample sunlight, water and nutrient rich soil. My Great-Great-Great-Great-Great Grandmother planted a spider plant she obtained from a trip to South Africa as a child in the mid 1850's. It was Willed to me by my Grandmother and it's still happy and alive, currently residing in my living room. It's roughly 160 years old, about 3 feet at the base and about 3½ feet tall. It has almost 100 vines and well over 200 baby spiders. Every one of my friends and coworkers has at least 1 or 2 spider plants. We named it "Audrey II" back in the mid 80's.

Are spiders carnivores herbivores or omnivores?

Spiders are carnivores. They do not eat plants, but instead live off of other spiders (cannibalism isn't uncommon in spider behavior), insects, and even (if the spider's web is strong enough) bigger prey, such as mice and birds.

How do most primary producers make their own food?

Most primary producers, such as plants, algae, and some bacteria, use photosynthesis to make their own food. They use sunlight, carbon dioxide, and water to produce glucose (sugar) and oxygen. Some primary producers, like certain bacteria, can also use chemosynthesis where they acquire energy from chemical reactions to make food.

What group of animals are spiders part of?

Spiders belong to the class Arachnida, which includes other arachnids such as scorpions, ticks, and mites. They are distinct from insects, which belong to the class Insecta.

What is a Fern Spider?

There is no specific species known as a Fern Spider. It is possible that it may refer to a spider that is commonly found near ferns or plants resembling ferns in their habitat. If you are referring to a specific species or genus of spider, please provide more details for accurate information.

What kind of symmetry does an eel have?

Eels have bilateral symmetry. This means they have symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.

What kind of spider only builds a web at night?

The nocturnal orb-weaving spider typically builds its web at night. These spiders are active during the night when their prey is more abundant and create intricate orb-shaped webs to capture insects.

Why is the chuditch endangered?

The Chuditch is endangered for many reasons, some of which I do not know a lot about, but I can partly answer the question.

One reasone is the the introduction of red foxes, as the Chuditch makes a good meal for a fox; a good size and easily identifiable as good to eat. Feral cats also played a small part in the endangering of the species for the same reasons.

Another more tragic reason is the urbanisation of the Chuditch's habitat. When colonies were first established in WA, Chuditchs would sometimes go and take chickens and other small livestock, and so were seen as a menace to farmers. Ever since then, new suburbs and buildings have gradually taken the place of the dry sclerophyll woodland the Chuditchs inhabit, and so there are far fewer surviving.

Where are camel spiders located?

Camel spiders are typically found in desert regions around the world, including the Middle East, North Africa, and parts of the southwestern United States. They prefer dry, sandy habitats with sparse vegetation.

What do spiders and mushrooms have in common?

Spiders and mushrooms are both organisms found in nature. They both play important roles in their respective ecosystems, with spiders helping to control insect populations and mushrooms decomposing organic matter. Additionally, both spiders and mushrooms come in a wide variety of species and can be found in various habitats around the world.

Are male black widow spiders poisonous?

Experts in the field have suggested that males (smaller, and sometimes grayish) very rarely bite humans, and their venom is not as potent as the female. This applies to both the northern and southern Black Widow species, latrodectus variolus and latrodectus mactans.

Is moss rose posioness?

They can be but it matters on how developed they are if their young they are pretty much harmless. But full grown they have fully developed venom that will make the bite swell and possibly give you an infection but it is NOT life threatening.

Will an outside banana rot faster than an inside banana?

Yes, an outside banana will likely rot faster than an inside banana due to exposure to factors such as air, temperature fluctuations, and possible physical damage. The inside banana is more protected from these external factors, leading to slower deterioration.

What do spiders look like that live in dirt?

Spiders that live in dirt, such as wolf spiders or funnel-web spiders, typically have a camouflaged appearance to blend in with their environment. They may be brown, gray, or black in color with a hairy body and legs. These spiders are adapted for the underground habitat, with specialized behaviors and physical traits for burrowing and hunting.

Does spider have a heart?

Spiders do not have a centralized circulatory system like mammals do, so they do not have a typical heart. Instead, spiders have a tube-like structure called a dorsal heart that pumps a fluid called hemolymph throughout their bodies.

How do you kill fly larvae?

You can kill fly larvae by applying products containing Bacillus thuringiensis, which is a natural bacterium that targets and kills larvae. Another option is to use commercial insecticides labeled for fly control, following the instructions carefully to prevent any harm to pets or humans. Another method is to physically remove and dispose of the infested material where the larvae are present, such as rotting food or organic matter.

What are camel spiders predators?

Camel spiders have a few predators, such as birds, reptiles, and other larger spiders. These predators hunt camel spiders for food, either actively seeking them out or opportunistically capturing them. Their predators play a role in controlling the population of camel spiders in their natural habitats.

Worm like animal with many pairs of legs?

You may be referring to a millipede, which is a long, slender, worm-like animal with many pairs of legs. Millipedes can have anywhere from 30 to 400 pairs of legs, and they are known for their distinctive cylindrical body shape and segmented exoskeleton. These creatures are not insects, but belong to the class Diplopoda.
