Feeding the World in 2050 The current world population is approximately 7 billion and it is estimated to increase to around 9 billion by the year 2050. However the land area available for growing food doesn’t seem to increase much due to the land degradation. If we don’t do anything‚ this world will be lack of foods‚ water and resources which means it will never be the same as now again. So‚ throughout this essay‚ I will be explaining about the causes of these problems and the possible solution

ABSTRACT Morphology is inherent to an understanding of how insects live and function. Orthopteroid insects are good choices for this study because gross morphological features are readily observed. Like most other insects‚ the grasshopper (or other Orthopteroid) consists of three general body regions: the head‚ thorax and abdomen. For morphological studies‚ antennae were detached from the specimen. Then‚ the antenna was mounted in a glass slide. The prepared slides were then examined under magnoscope
