What are the paired appendages of Cambarus
1 pair of antennules
1 pair of antennae
1 pair of mandibles
2 pairs of maxillae
3 pairs of maxillipeds
5 pairs of walking legs
5 pairs of swimmerets
Antennules and Antennae are used for
taste and touch
mandibles are used for
chewing
maxillae are used for
food handling
the first pair of walking legs in Cambarus are modified into
chelipeds
Swimmerets are used for water circulation over gills

airate eggs

transfer sperm
Subphylum Myriapoda members have ___ tagmata which are the
2
head and trunk

aren’t
The class Insecta has __ tagmata which are
3
head, thorax and abdomen
The class Insecta members of subphylum Hexapoda have appendages that include
1 pair of antennae
3 pairs of legs
2 pairs of wings
and specialized mouthparts
The mouthparts of Class Insecta are
1 labrum
2 mandibles
2 maxillae
1 labium
Insecta labrums are
the single upper “lip” that aids in holding food
Insecta mandibles function to
crush and grind food
Insecta maxillae function to
sense and manipulate food
Insecta labiums are
the single lower “lip” that holds food and has two palps
Class Insecta can undergo
incomplete or complete metamorphisis
The genus of grasshopper we looked at is
Romalea
Spiracles on grasshoppers connect to
the tranchea as part of the respiratory system
A female Romalea is characterized by it’s
forked ovipositor
As opposed to female crayfish, male crayfish are
larger and have more developed swimmerets
Romalea mouthparts differ from Camburus mouthparts because
Romalea mouthparts include the Lambrum and Labium
and Camburus has only one mandible as opposed to two.
What do honey bees use to transport nectar?
pollen?
probossis
corbicula
To tell others of a new source of nectar, honey bees use
the waggle dance
