The diagram shows the life cycle of an arthropod. The majority of arthropods are insects. The life cycle of an arthropod can be broken down into seven stages. The first stage is Egg Mass, which can take 6-9 days to hatch. Next, comes the five nymphal stages of growth. This can take 16-18 days to complete. In some arthropods, newly hatched offspring look like small adults. These arthropods don't go through larval stages. They just grow larger until they reach adult size. This type of life cycle is called incomplete metamorphosis. After this, the arthropod becomes an adult. The adult can now lay a new set of eggs, starting another life cycle.

The diagram shows the life cycle of organisms in the Animal kingdom called Arthropods. Arthropods are invertebrates in Phylum Arthropoda. There are more than a million known species of arthropods. In addition to insects, arthropods include animals such as spiders, centipedes, and lobsters. Arthropods reproduce sexually. Male and female adults produce gametes or eggs. If fertilization occurs, eggs hatch into offspring. After hatching, most arthropods go through one or more larval stages before reaching adulthood. The larvae may look very different from the adults. They change into the adult form in a process called metamorphosis. During metamorphosis, the arthropod is called a pupa. It may or may not spend this stage inside a special container called a cocoon. A familiar example of arthropod metamorphosis is the transformation of a caterpillar (larva) into a butterfly (adult). Each life stage can evolve adaptations to suit it for its specific functions without affecting the adaptations of the other stages. In some arthropods, newly hatched offspring look like small adults. These arthropods don't go through larval stages. They just grow larger until they reach adult size.

The diagram shows the life cycle of a Frog. Frogs belong to species of animals called amphibians, meaning they can live in land or in water. Adult frogs lay their eggs in water or wet places. A floating clump of eggs is called a frog spawn. The egg begins as a single cell. Several thousand are sometimes laid at once. It becomes surrounded by a jellylike covering, which protects the egg. The egg slowly develops for a period of about 21 days and becomes a tadpole, a baby frog. The tadpole has a long tail, and lives in the water. After about five weeks, the tadpole begins to transform. It starts to grow hind legs, which are soon followed with forelegs. Behind their heads bulges appear where their front legs are growing and their tails become smaller. The tadpole becomes a froglet. Froglets continue to live in water and continue to develop. Over time, the tadpole becomes even more frog-like. They shed their skin and lips. Its mouth widens, and it loses its horny jaws. The tail becomes much smaller, and the legs grow. As they become adult frogs, the life cycle then continues.

The diagram illustrates the life cycle of a butterfly. It begins as adult butterflies lay their eggs. The egg is a tiny, round, oval, or cylindrical object, usually with fine ribs and other microscopic structures. The female attaches the egg to leaves, stems, or other objects, usually on or near the intended caterpillar food. After sometime the caterpillar hatches from the eggs. The caterpillar (or larva) is the long, worm-like stage of the butterfly. It often has a colorful pattern of stripes or patches, and it may have spine-like hairs. It feeds on plant leaves and as it grows, it sheds its skin four or more times to enclose its rapidly growing body. After the caterpillar has grown big enough, they form themselves into a Chrysalis (or pupa). It is the transformation stage within which the caterpillar transforms into an adult butterfly by a process called metamorphosis.

This diagram shows the life cycle of a butterfly. A butterfly lays eggs on leaves or plants. Then, the eggs hatch into larva. These larva grow to full-sized caterpillars. The caterpillars form pupa, or cocoons. Within a few weeks, the pupa begins to unravel and a butterfly emerges. Later, the butterfly will lay eggs and the cycle will begin again. This cycle generally takes less than 4-6 weeks to complete.

This diagram shows the anatomy of a Starfish. Starfish (properly called sea stars) are any echinoderms belonging to the class Asteroidea The cardiac stomach is the part of the stomach of a starfish used for pumping blood. Pyloric stomach: part of the stomach of a starfish connected to the duodenum. Water enters the starfish through the madreporite, a porous structure. There are two glands located in each arm called gonads. They are responsible for the production of gametes (spermatozoids or ovules) depending on the sex of the starfish. Starfish are composed of a central disc from which arms sprout. Most starfish have 5 arms.

A food chain diagram shows the energy flow through ecosystems. It represents feeding relationships. Producers are living organisms that produce food for other species. The producer in this diagram is the plant. Consumers are organisms that depend on other living things for food. The primary consumers of the plant are the mice, caterpillars and aphids. They in turn are the food for the secondary consumers. The secondary consumers in this diagram are the owl, the kookaburra and the sparrow. The eagle is the tertiary consumer in this diagram. Most organisms consume and are consumed by more than one species so food chain diagrams are usually simpler than what happens in nature.

Energy is the ability to change or move matter. Every living thing needs energy to survive and grow. Food chains such as this one here have many intersecting pathways. Realistically in nature, many different plants and animals are eaten by a number of other such living things. As you can see in this diagram, rabbits, mice and grasshoppers all eat the grass. Additionally, hawks eat snakes, sparrows and frogs. This is all the natural way of life and exhibits the term survival of the fittest. This term means that the more dominant consumer will survive.

The diagram we observe is that of a food web. A food web is nothing but a system of interlocking and interdependent food chains. In this food web, we observe 2 plants/fruits at the lowest level, namely Plantain and Berries. Plantain is consumed by Grasshoppers, Rabbits and Mouse. Berries on the other hand are consumed by Grasshoppers again, Titmouse, Butterflies and Greenflies. In the next level of the food web, the Grasshoppers are eaten by frogs, Rabbits and Mouse by Buzzard and Fox, Greenfly by Ladybird, Butterfly by Frogs and Titmouse by Snakes. The Ladybird is eaten by Dragonfly and the Dragonfly in turn is eaten by Frogs. The Frogs are consumed by Snakes and the Snake in turn is eaten by Buzzard. The Fox and Buzzard also feed on Titmouse, thus making them the topmost in the food web.

This diagram exhibits the flow of energy concept. As seen the hawk eats the snake, mouse and decomposers. Additionally, the deer eat decomposers and trees to survive. The mouse is eaten by snakes, hawks and owls. The owl eats the frog which eats the cricket which eats decomposers. This is part of the cycle of life. Therefore, an ecosystem is depicted. An ecosystem is a group of living things living in their habitat.

The diagram shows an example of a food web. A food web shows the different pathways energy flows through an ecosystem. Because plants produce their own food as well as food for animals, they are called producers. Because animals eat other living things, they are called consumers. There are different kinds of animals based on what they consume. Animals that consume plants are called herbivores. Animals that consume other animals are called carnivores. Animals that consume both plants and animals are called omnivores. There are many different food chains in a food web. A food chain shows how energy flows from a producer, to a primary consumer, then to a secondary consumer, then to a tertiary consumer, and so on, until it reaches the top of the food chain. For example, the diagram shows that plants, the producers, are eaten by herbivorous insects, the primary consumers. The herbivorous insects are then eaten by insectivorous birds, the secondary consumers. Finally, the insectivorous birds are eaten by hawks and owls, the tertiary consumers.
