Both Cobweb and Spider web refer to the silken threads spun by a spider. The meanings are identical.
However the word "cobweb" can also be used to mean a single thread spun by a spider, whereas spider web tends to be used to describe a multi strand pattern.
On saying this, the actual definition defines both "cobweb" and "spider web" as being the same, with little or no difference between them.
A cobweb also refers to a web that is no longer in use by the spider that made it for what ever reason the spider has moved on.
Simple: A dust web is made of particles of dust and dirt and other things such as leaves, just natural things. A spider web however, is made out of a special kind of silk that most spiders naturally produce and use to create/spin their webs.
As web is to spider.
The middle of a spider's web is called the "hub." This is where the spider typically waits for prey to become trapped in the web.
I think its called a spider web, not sure though, could be something else
What logo is a black spider web
A spiderweb, but just abandoned by the spider. Why it is called a cobweb, I really have no idea. . .
As far as I know there is no such thing. You probably heard or saw it wrong. It was probably 'Cob web' which is what a spider makes to catch food.

Cobweb is an alternate word, derived from the middle English coppeweb (from coppe, meaning "spider", a word that was introduced to England by the Dutch invaders.)
Once the spiders web is old and dusty it is called a cobweb. From cob (old English for spider) and web.
The speed at which a spider weaves a web is dependent on the size and location of the web as well as the size of the spider. A spider can typically create a web up to 20 times the size of their body. A well organised web can be created in 15-20 minutes. One that has to cover large gaps will take longer.

yes
Do you mean "spiders that make cobwebs"? Do you mean "poisonous" (like hemlock tea) or venomous (like cobra venom)? The word "cob" in "cobweb" just meant "spider." So a cobweb is just a spider web. Not all spiders are venomous. No spiders are known to be poisonous. Since black widows make webs, some "cob spiders" are highly venomous.
