Insects don’t have lungs, but they do have holes called spiracles that they use to breathe. The insect’s stomach and reproductive organs are located in its abdomen. Like our abdomen, this part of the insect is where many of its organs are located. The insect’s abdomen is the third and last part of the insect’s body. The insect’s tibia and then the tarsus are thinner parts of the legs that may have “brushes” to help the insect clean off or may have little hooks on the end to help the insect move or hold on to things. This is a large, muscular part of the insect’s leg, and it’s responsible for movements like hopping. The insect’s femur comes after the trochanter. The coxa is similar to the human hip and is a moving joint part. The coxa is the part that’s attached the thorax, followed by another small part, the trochanter. Like humans, insects have different parts of their legs. The insect’s six legs are attached to the thorax in three pairs. Think of the thorax as a muscular box that provides the structures needed to move the insect’s legs and wings. The thorax is the name for the middle part of the insect’s body where the legs and wings are attached. Different insects have different ways of eating, but an insect’s mouthparts ( mandibles) are also on its head. An insect’s head has stalk-like structures called antennae that are used for feeling and smelling. Insects often have compound eyes made up of many different parts that allow the insect to see in many different directions. The eyes are also located on the head, although insect eyes are often quite different from human eyes.

For instance, it contains what we’d call the insect’s brain, even though other parts of the insect are also responsible for storing information and controlling the insect’s movement. The insect’s head is similar to ours in some ways. An insect’s body has three parts: a head, thorax, and abdomen.
