  4. Insect physiology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insect_physiology

    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 ...

Hair plate neurons come in two flavors, one that responds phasically (rapidly adapting) and another that responds tonically (slowly adapting) to transient or maintained deflections of the hairs.

Since not all cockroaches would be molting at the same time, many would be unaffected by an acute burst of radiation, although lingering and more [ clarification needed ] acute radiation would still be harmful.

    The electron-dense extracellular material is small and localized mainly to the junction between the cilia and the attachment cell. The femoral chordotonal organ is mononematic. In contrast, in the amphinematic form, the extracellular material of the cap forms a dense, tubular sheath that surrounds the sensory cilium and extends all the way to ...
