◉Hexapoda . Answer: The Class that all insects belong to, formally
"insecta"
◉Chordata . Answer: The most familiar Phylum that includes the
mammals, birds, reptiles and fish "vertebrate pests"
◉Mollusca . Answer: Phylum that includes snails, clams, etc. These are
also tiny organisms, almost too small to be seen with the naked eye,
called protozoa.
◉Arthropoda . Answer: largest phylum by far that contains the largest
class,"Hexapoda". no one feature alone will separate the Arthropoda
from all other animals. Segmented bodies, jointed appendages, shell like
body "exoskeleton". They also have bilateral symmetry. (Each side of
the body is the same as the other)
◉Crustacea . Answer: water inhabiting animals which breath either by
gills or through the surface of their bodies. Numerous pairs of legs; two
,pairs of antennae, fused head to the body. Lobster, crawfish, crab,
sowbug & pillbug
◉Diplopoda . Answer: Land animals which breath through air tubes on
the side of their bodies. one pair of antennae, cylindrical bodies with a
series of segments which look very much alike. each segment has two
pairs of legs. "Millipedes"
◉Chilopoda . Answer: Have antennae and breath by air tubes. body is
more flattened and each segment bears only one pair of legs.
"centipedes"
◉Hexapoda . Answer: INSECTS: have three distinct body regions. The
head, the thorax and the abdomen. they have only one pair of antennae,
six legs that are all attached to the thorax. usually four wings if they
have them that are also attached to the thorax. "Air tubes"
◉Arachnida . Answer: Have only two body regions, The cephalothorax
and the abdomen. they do not have antennae and the cephalothorax bears
eight legs. they breath with book lungs. Some smaller arachnids breath
through surfaces on the body.
◉8 Characteristics of Insects . Answer: 1. bilaterally symmetrical
2. segmented body
3. three body regions
,4. exoskeleton
5. three pairs of jointed legs
6. one pair of antennae
7. two pairs of wings, usually
8. airs tubes for breathing
◉Ametabola (No Metamorphosis) . Answer: group said to have no
metamorphosis. "Silverfish and springtails"
◉Heterometabola (Gradual Metamorphosis) . Answer: there is some
change in the insect as it grows up other than merely a change in size.
development of wings as the insect gets larger.
Life Stages: Egg, Nymph, Adult
(Roaches, grasshoppers, bedbugs, termites, stink bugs)
◉Holometabola (Complete Metamorphosis) . Answer: insects that have
four distinct life stages. Usually the larvae live on entirely different food
and do not resemble the adults.
Egg, larva, pupa, adult.
Beetles, fleas, flies, ants, bees, weevils.
, ◉Molting . Answer: the cells of the exoskeleton called the hypodermis
secretes a molting fluid which separates the insect allowing the insect to
slide out of the shell and grow by filling itself with air or water.
◉Instar . Answer: 1st, 2nd, 3rd Instar describes the stage at which the
size of the insect will represent which molt age they are currently at.
◉Chitin . Answer: Chitin is the substance produced by the hypodermis
that eventually hardens and becomes the new exoskeleton
◉Compound Eyes & Ocelli . Answer: Compound eyes are the larger and
most visible eyes (Fly) while Ocelli are much smaller and vary in
number but usually contain only three
◉Labrum . Answer: flap like upper lip which is hinged and moves back
and forth. It covers the upper part of the mouth
◉Mandibles . Answer: are powerful jaws that move in and out from
each side masticating the food.
◉Maxillae . Answer: secondary smaller jaws that hold the food while
the mandibles break it up
