Zoridae Spider

Figure 1. This spider displays the long hairy legs that the Zoridae spider family obtains. This trait is adventageous to their location on webs and other terrain. The legs have many hair follicles to imprive their sense of awareness. The spider's legs extend about an inch out from its abdomen. The legs bend at multiple joints and are a consitent color throughout all eight legs.

Figure 1)

This butterfly is perched on the leaf getting ready to lay its eggs. It lays its eggs on the leaf so that when the caterpillars (its offspring) hatch, they can eat the leaves as a source of sustenance.

He is covered in light brown spots that sit on a beige body. He seems to stand as tall as the trees and the grass is tall so that it covers his feet.

Marzia and I found a picture of a Drosophila a common “fruit fly” used in lab experiments as an easy way to test many things in lab. I noticed is that this particular fly has orange eyes. It’s body color is like a tan color. It’s abdomen is white. It is very hairy. It has 6 legs.The picture was taken by Keegan Bowen posted on Flickr. https://www.flickr.com/photos/49711256@N08/6196954031

Figure 1. The male drosophila melanogaster possesses a prominent rectal disc. The male drosophila melanogaster, more commonly known as a fruit fly, possess the same anatomy as a female drosophila melanogaster aside from its rectal disc. The male has a prominent black genital disc with surrounding black bristles. Even in a side profile, as pictured above, the rectal disc is visible and distinguishes the male drosophila from its female counterpart.
