Spiders pt 1

Hey it's me again if you have not read my jumping spider blog you better read it before this one.

So I'm going to talk about spiders a lot because I really like them so you will see a lot of blogs on my profile about spiders OK enough about that so quick fact the biggest spider is the Goliath Bird Eating Tarantula.  Now on the facts.  Crab spiders are my favorite spider they change their color to blend in with their surroundings and they move side to side. Like a crab! Is that cool?  I think it is , anyway a crab spider is sitting on a flower and a  bee lands on it the crab spider then SNAP the crab spider bites the bee's neck injects it's venom the venom turn the bee's insides into fluid the spider drinks the fluid then pushes the dead body off the flower and waits for it's next victim or prey.  Now we move on to the wolf spider.  Wolf spiders are really fast and where you will find them are North America and Europe.  They have two big eyes and some burrow or make tubes in the ground.  Oh I just about forgot to tell you about the differences between a insect and a spider.  Well they are pretty much the same except spiders have 8 legs not 6 and 2 main body parts instead of 3 OK here is a cool fact about spiders some copy insects!  But be careful when you touch hem to be safe touch it with a stick.Well this is the end of this blog.  Part 2 is coming soon!

The Jumping Spiders

Hi it Tanner again so now I'm going to talk about spiders now you might be thinking ew spiders are stupid little gross things we don't want around our house well you are wrong they are actually good and help full because they eat unwanted bugs.  But back to the story I forgot to name the kind didn't I .....  that's a little embarrassing.  Anyway the spider I'm talking about is the jumping spider.  Okay right off the bat a fact that that I think is weird the jumping spider has no special muscle to jump.  Weird huh?  OK do not I repeat do not get insects mixed up with spiders I'll tell you why later.  So my second favorite fact about the jumping spiders are how they make their egg sac.   OK to start off she makes a bowl then she lays her eggs in it then she covers it then she waits two to three weeks then then they hatch.  then the mother usually dies right when they hatch but when they hatch they cut a hole in it they come out so they are really hungry they try to get some thing and if they are really really hungry they eat each other.  Weird huh?  So you know how I said "don't get insects mixed up with spiders" well here's why,  you might see a beetle but it's really a black widow.  Oh did you know that the black widow is the most poisonous spider in north America. Don't forget to comment!

Invertebrates

Hi my name is Tanner and this is going to be about invertebrates.  Okay so if you don't know what invertebrates are they are animals with out backbones so now you know.  But back to the story.  The most simple invertebrate is the sponge.  Now you may think you have something that soaks up all the water that is in your kitchen but we are not talking about that one so where was I oh yes now I remember the animal sponge yes they're usually found on rocks or other spots in the ocean.  Oh did I tell you if a sponge gets it's let's say it's leg cut off it will grow it back, cool huh. Now enough about sponges lets move to stinging celled animals like the jelly fish and it only has one openings and it only has one opening the mouth and it is surrounded by tentacles that sting it's food.  Next in line is the flatworm.  It may live in the hosts body as a parasite.  Oh did I tell you that flatworms have long flat bodies.  They have one opening for taking in food plus getting rid of wastes.  Flatworms are way more complex than stinging celled animals.  Some flatworms are scavengers.  If you don't know what scavengers are they are animals that do anything  to supply water or food.   Okay now we are going on to roundworms.   Roundworms have bodies that are not flat. Now we move onto complex invertebrates.  Did you know complex invertebrates are different then simple invertebrates?  Now segmented worms may live in water or land.  Earthworms, leeches, and clam worms are segmented worms.  They all have rings or segments.  Now we move onto arthropods.  Did you know that they are the largest animal group.
