An insect uses its digestive system to extract nutrients and other substances from the food it consumes. [3]Most of this food is ingested in the form of macromolecules and other complex substances (such as proteins, polysaccharides, fats, and nucleic acids) which must be broken down by catabolic reactions into smaller molecules (i.e. amino acids, simple sugars, etc.) before being used by cells ...

Sir Vincent Brian Wigglesworth CBE FRS [1] (17 April 1899 – 11 February 1994) was a British entomologist who made significant contributions to the field of insect physiology. [2] [3] He established the field in a textbook which was updated in a number of editions. [4] In particular, he studied metamorphosis.
