What are facts about inchworms?
Inchworms are the larval or caterpillar stage of geometer moths [Geometridae family within the Lepidoptera order of butterflies and moths]. So they're members of a large family that includes over 26,000 species. About 1,200 of those species are native to North America.
Other names for this larval stage include looper and spanworm. All three names refer to the way in which the inchworm gets around. It lacks the middle pair of legs that most Lepidopteran caterpillars have. It therefore has just two sets of two or three legs at either end. So for example, it gets around by clasping the ground, leaf or stem with its front legs and moving its hind legs right behind them. Then the hind legs clasp the leaf and the front legs move forward, and so on.
It looks as though the larva is measuring the ground's, leaf's or stem's surface. Instead, it's actually moving along or towards its food source. Leaves are the most common food source. But there are some inchworm species that favor pollen, lichens or flowers. There are even some that are carnivorous. There are even others that are most destructive in their feeding, and are called 'cankerworms'.
But whatever the type, they represent a particularly vulnerable stage within the geometer moth life cycle. Specifically, larval stages tend to be attractive to such predators as birds and foraging mammals.
When it's disturbed or stressed, the inchworm clasps the surface with its hind legs and stands straight up and still.

Why does your brain get fooled by optical illusions?
Our Brains are both "Wired" and "Trained" to respond in specific ways to Optical stimuli. For instance, our Brains use "Perspective" (size in particular) to determine when an Object is near, or far away.
So we are easily fooled (initially) by a picture in which two similar Objects appear to be different sizes. We assume that the smaller Object is farther away than the Larger one!
Other factors that tend to fool the eye are Angled Lines, Arcs, and Tapers. Our Brains make assumptions and take shortcuts to process the huge amount of information that comes into it through our senses. Sometimes this causes us to make mistakes in perception...fall for an Optical Illusion.
Why do leeches live in some kinds of deserts?
Most leeches require permanent fresh water to survive athough a few species can survive in damp soil. Therefore the only places a leech could survive in a desert are in an oasis, river or other source of permanent water.

Leeches are classified in the genus Hirudo, which is part of the class Clitellata within the phylum Annelida. The most commonly known species is Hirudo medicinalis, often used in medical applications. However, there are many other genera of leeches, including Haemopis and Limnatis, which encompass various species adapted to different environments.
Yes and also they remember.

no not at all, they will grow a new tail but if you cut a worm in half too close to the head then it will not grow a new tail and you will end up with two pieces of dead worm which, in my opinion, is pretty repulsive
Are inchworms harmful or just pesty indoors?
Inchworms are harmful indoors and outside.
Specifically, the pest in question (Geometridae family) is the caterpillar manifestation of geometer moths. As the larval stage, inchworms prey upon foliage. They will devour the leaves of deciduous trees (especially apple, cherry, crabapple, maple, mulberry) and of garden vegetables.
Well considering this question makes no sense and I happen to be a boy that answered it I think we can clearly see who the silly one is here.
