GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -The three main insect body parts are head, thorax, and abdomen. The head contains the antennae, eyes, and mouthparts. The thorax is the middle body part to which the legs and wings are attached. The abdomen contains digestive and reproductive organs internally and often reproductive structures externally.

Detailed explanation-2: -An insect’s abdomen is the third functional region (tagma) of its body; the abdomen is located just behind the thorax. In most insects, the junction between thorax and abdomen is broad, but in some groups, the junction is very narrow (petiolate) giving the appearance of a “wasp-waist”.

Detailed explanation-3: -The thorax is the midsection (tagma) of the hexapod body (insects and entognathans). It holds the head, legs, wings and abdomen. It is also called mesosoma or cephalothorax in other arthropods.

Detailed explanation-4: -*Insect bodies have three parts (head, thorax, abdomen).
