  1. INSECT REVIEW

  2. Hard, outer wings of insects such as beetles. SHELL-LIKE

  3. Animals with no internal support structures. INVERTEBRATE

  4. Insect sensory organ. ANTENNAE

  5. Hard covering on the outside of an insect’s body. EXOSKELETON

  6. The science of classifying insects based on characteristics. TAXONOMY

  7. The quiet stage of an insect’s development. PUPA

  8. Clear wings with visible veins such as wasps. MEMBRANEOUS

  10. The process of shedding skin to grow bigger. MOLTING

  11. What characteristics could be used to determine insect orders? • Type of wings • Where they lay eggs • Type of metamorphosis • Color • How their wings fold

  12. Insect body part that holds the eyes, mouthparts, and antennae. HEAD

  16. Insects cooperating and working together in order to survive. SOCIAL (COLONY)

  17. The ability to survive in a changing environment. ADAPTATION

  18. The rubbing of body parts together to make sounds. STRIDULATION

  19. The material that makes up the exoskeleton of an insect. CHITIN

  20. Special sound-makers on the abdomens of some insects. TYMBALS

  21. All insects begin their life cycle in this stage. EGG

  22. Jaw-like mouthparts used for feeding and communicating. MANDIBLES

  23. List 2 reasons why insects make sound. • COMMUNICATE • ATTRACT MATES • DEFEND TERRITORY • SCARE PREDATORS

  24. Insect body part where the legs and wings are attached. THORAX

  32. Long, tube-like mouthpart, that takes up food like a straw. PROBOSCIS (SIPHONING)

  33. The life cycle of an insect. METAMORPHOSIS

  34. Special group (order) of insects known as true bugs. HEMIPTERA

  35. List 2 ways in which an insect can make sound. • TYMBALS • SPIRACLES • STRIDULATION • SNAP MANDIBLES • TAP BODY PARTS ON SURFACE
