Gregor’s transformation is partial. While he is physically an insect on the exterior‚ he retains a human mind inside. Hence‚ Gregor is mentally aware of what is happening to him and his body. This hybridity‚ in terms of having an insect body but a human mind‚ contributes greatly to the grotesque image of the main character. As quoted from Bakhtin‚ what is happening to Gregor is an “unfinished metamorphosis” whereby he is not fully insect‚ yet not fully human either. The “in-between-ness” of such a

The purpose of this experiment is to see which color bulb attracts the most insects at night time. I will use the same lamp for both bulbs and put it in the same location outside a window so I can observe the lamp without disturbing the insects with my presence. I will watch one color for ten minutes and wait 20 minutes after to do the other color. This is to make sure the second light is not having similar bugs recorded from the first light. For every observation day I will switch the order of the

These things may be able to breed and‚ as John said

topic in insects. Wings play a crucial role for insects since they are used to assist with collecting food‚ migration‚ fleeing from predators‚ and many other activities. There are three main theories that have been thoroughly researched to help explain the evolution of wings. These theories include the paranotal origin of wings‚ the tracheal gill theory‚ and the exite-endite theory. The paranotal origin of wings hypothesis states that wings developed from paranotal lobes. When insects fell on the

01‚ 2001 Research Project: Class Insecta Insects are invertebrates in the class Insecta from the phylum arthopoda. Arthropods include more than 850‚000 species and form by far the largest phylum in the animal kingdom‚ exceeding in number all the other Phyla combined. The characteristic tough exoskeleton and jointed limbs are superimposed in a segmental body plan that reflects the evolution of arthropods from ancestors of the annelid worm. Insects‚ arachnids‚ myriapods and crustaceans are the
