0 unreality Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I know you didn't say that exactly, but that's how I interpreted it I get it now - the 28 days in each month isn't a metaphor, it's an exact example (ie, all insects have 2 legs.... and 4 more ). Thanks for clarifying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Is it a spider? If it's an insect then it can't be a spider. Spiders are arachnids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 stil awaiting yes no to some Qs some info for others Other terrestrial arthropods, such as centipedes, millipedes, scorpions and spiders, are sometimes confused with insects since their body plans can appear similar, sharing (as do all arthropods) a jointed exoskeleton. However upon closer examination their features differ significantly; most noticeably they do not have the six legs characteristic of adult insects. Spiders are in two parts where as an insect is in three, Head Thorax and Abdomen Teeth - I am a bit concerned about?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted November 12, 2008 Report Share Posted November 12, 2008 I want to state that insects are not animals. This is not a question. The premise was flawed Not even sure how to reply - On a scientific Level: The living members of the kingdom Animalia are divided into approximately 36 smaller groups called phyla singular phylum. One of which, the Arthropoda is of particular interest to us. This phylum contains the hard shelled, jointed legged animals and is further divided into four smaller groups called classes. They are: Crustacea, things like prawns, crabs and woodlice; Myriapoda, centipedes, millipedes and the like; Chelicerata (Arachnida), spiders, scorpions and harvestmen e.t.c.; Uniramia (Insecta), things like beetles, bees and flies. Now the uniramia or insecta are divided into 29 even smaller, though still pretty large groups called orders such as: Diptera, Flies; Coleoptera, Beetles; Phasmida, Stick-Insects; Dictyoptera, Cockroaches and Praying Mantids; Hymenoptera, Wasps, Ants and Bees Lepidoptera, Butterflies and Moths; Or Simply - In twenty questions we start with Animal, Vegetable, or Mineral - Where would you classify an insect?
