Chapter 600 Cold knowledge has increased again! Is insect one of the most successful species in evolution? (1 Please complete order!)

It was also what Yang Yi said.

Surprised the water friends in the live broadcast room.

In their view, the earth is in the process of billions of evolution.

Many species were born.

The most impressive of them all.

It is nothing more than a deep-sea beast that lives in the ocean.

And the dinosaurs that once dominated the land for tens of millions of years.

They have absolutely excellent dominance and occupy the highest level of the food chain, leading the evolution of species for tens of millions of years.

But Yang Xu’s words.

It has undoubtedly subverted the cognition of some sand sculpture netizens.

It turns out that insects are the most successful evolutionary creatures on this earth?

in the live broadcast room.

As Yang Xu and Yi Ying kept getting closer.

Those ‘Rose Crystal Eye Butterflies’ fluttering in the jungle

0

It appeared more clearly in the screen of the live broadcast room.

They are indeed as transparent as crystal.

On the rear pair of wings, there are eye-shaped patterns.

The rose crystal eye butterfly is also named after it.

As Yang Xu mentioned before.

These are very beautifully shaped butterflies.

The tail has a rosy pink coloration, although butterflies such as orange and yellow and black also appear.

But compared to the larger species community.

Butterflies of other colors occupy a smaller proportion.

Yi Qian asked “Three Six Seven” in confusion: “Is insect one of the most successful species in evolution in this world?”

There were many question marks in her big eyes.

Even after sailing around the world with Yang Xu.

Because it needs to be competent in many scenarios, understanding and cognition of marine life.

So that when Yang Xu is inconvenient, or when diving.

To better provide the audience with popular science and improve the effect of the program.

But this girl has made up a lot of biological knowledge about the ocean.

Even the knowledge of terrestrial life on the island.

But for gadgets like insects, butterflies, bees and even ants.

Yi Qian had never understood.

It is precisely because of this.

The doubts in the girl’s heart at the moment are different from those of the thousands of water friends in the live broadcast room.

Yang Xu recorded the butterflies clearly with the camera.

Then he said to the audience in the live broadcast room: “Although insects will have a little impact on human society in terms of habitat and survival.”

“Including damage to crops and skin bites, I believe everyone will be bitten by mosquitoes in summer.”

These problems have always accompanied human development.

But there is no doubt.

Insects have survived the Earth era to this day.

And the number of species is enormous.

The number of individuals is even greater, tens of thousands of times more than the total number of humans!

In fact, it can make insects more adaptable to the changes in the earth’s environment.

An important reason for constant evolution.

Because they have strong exoskeletons.

Even from a human point of view.

These insects are so weak that they can even kill an ant and a butterfly without blowing dust.

But it is because of these small but great species.

The exoskeleton possessed in the process of evolution.

In many cases, the reproduction of the entire species can be guaranteed, and even the evolution of subspecies branches!

within the globe.

There are countless new species discovered every year.

As far as Xia Kingdom and Eagle Sauce Kingdom are concerned.

There may be more than 200 new species discovered.

Among these new species discovered, a large part are from insects or arthropods.

From this point alone, their species diversity as well as their overall numbers.

It’s far beyond what ordinary people realize!

such as large mammals.

Or reptiles.

In fact, the discovery of new species is far less than that of insects.

To put it bluntly, on this beautiful blue earth.

Today, in today’s extremely advanced technology.

At a time when human beings are more aware of the natural environment.

There are still many humans, never-before-seen insects and small arthropods, all over this beautiful earth.

Unquestionably.

Even Yang Xu is not yet in the process of Ming insect evolution.

Relying on the above exoskeleton.

What are the key factors for the continued development of insect species and the emergence of branch subspecies?

But only because of the words just now.

It has subverted the cognition of most water friends.

[Before this, I thought that insects were just the most inconspicuous creatures in the world. The anchor’s remarks gave me a new understanding of these insects! 】

[I don’t care whether they evolve successfully or not, I just know that these butterflies photographed by Brother Xu are really beautiful!)

[They’re like glass, transparent and beautiful! Sunlight can even pass through their wings! It’s like adding a more dreamy filter to their beauty!)

[I think, if nothing else, Darwin should have encountered such a butterfly on St. Helena in those days, but there is a relatively lack of recorded information about its physical characteristics and related habits, which makes it impossible for later generations to learn more about it. Find out what the ‘Darwin Butterfly’ is.

【It’s all beautiful! )

And over billions of years of Earth’s evolution.

Too many creatures are like passing clouds.

Even overlords like dinosaurs.

also become history.

But only a few species survive to this day.

And insects never seem to have withdrawn from the stage of history.

Perhaps precisely because they are unremarkable.

Maybe because they are all over the world.

Their huge numbers have maintained the reproduction of species and allowed them to find suitable ecological niches in every era of the earth’s history!

to this day.

They are still active all over the world.

It is also because of the evolution of the exoskeleton of insect-like creatures.

More than just being able to ward off predators.

You can even rely on exoskeletons as organs to sense the environment, all over the world!

And adapt to dry, humid, severe cold, heat, and other harsh and changeable environment.

Therefore.

From desert to jungle.

From extreme cold to extreme heat.

in almost any environment.

Different types of insects can be seen.

Appear in different environments in different shapes!

Their exoskeletons are great for camouflage and defense.

Stick insects and lantern bugs are good examples of this.

at the same time.

Also as Yang Xu mentioned before.

Exoskeletons also lead to another advantage for insect-like creatures.

They can evolve themselves into smaller body sizes.

Such as the dinosaurs that ruled the Earth for 60 million years! They were able to grow to unparalleled size because they had endoskeletons that could support enormous weights.

But if you switch to insect creatures.

When the size has doubled.

Their exoskeletons will be 4 times larger than they are now!

As a result, the body of insects will be bloated and heavy, which will bring many disadvantages.

According to incomplete statistics.

in all insect species found throughout the world.

Able to reach the largest body size, about 140 grams…

The heaviest known insect in the world is the giant sandworm.

Even the well-known unicorns do not weigh more than 120 grams.

Yang Xu used the lens in his hand to record the crystal rose-eyed butterfly that fluttered and danced gracefully.

He went on to say:

Insects’ smaller size means they need less food to survive.99

in an extremely barren environment.

Being able to find enough food to sustain life.

Many insects have wings and master the ability to fly.

Then they can get rid of hidden dangers that may threaten their lives.

And can find safer habitats and establish new groups.

Find a safer habitat.

Get new food sources.

In a word.

Wings are important!

Body size reduction is also important!

before that.

What Yang Xu proposed, about insects such as butterflies, is one of the more successful species in evolution.

Tens of millions of sand sculpture netizens in the live broadcast room just heard it with a dazed expression.

Now it’s just daigo empowerment!

[In this way, insects occupy too many unique advantages in the earth’s environment, and the fact that they can fly with a small body size has already discouraged many creatures! 】

[Yesterday, I read the news that there is a group of elephants migrating in the south of Caiyunzhi. Their weight is relatively heavy. On the way from south to north, they will consume a lot of physical strength and even cause casualties! If elephants have wings , you don’t need to suffer so much. )

[When Brother Xu said this, I want to be a butterfly!)

[Me and you are lingering and lingering? Fei Yue will be with you forever?)

[Good guy! Liang Zhu calls the expert +1! Pang Long calls the expert +2!)

,

Yang Xu continued: “In the unique evolution of insects, any form of insect can produce a very large number of eggs in the process of reproduction.

When the mother lays eggs, it can be ignored.

Perhaps the survival rate of these eggs is not 100%.

But after the eggs grow.

There is no need to do it at all, such as seals, whales and other mammals, the “parenting problems” that need to be troubled.

0

After such an introduction by Yang Xu.

The audience in the live broadcast room immediately associated with…

5.4 Giving birth to a child is like pulling a puppy!

And the number of reproduction is more.

There is no need to worry about the survival of these eggs at all.

The combination of various reasons makes insects become the creatures that occupy the most species in the world, and it is understandable.

Yi Qian scratched her nose and said, “Although we only photographed these beautiful butterflies, we were imperceptibly stuffed into so much cold knowledge about insects QAQ~”

Regarding Yi Qian’s statement.

The audience in the live broadcast room was impressed.

[That’s not true! I’ll just say, why are mosquitoes always dying in summer? 】

[I think, if the world has to choose a species to go extinct, I will definitely choose mosquitoes! 】

[In the unique evolutionary process, it seems that these insects can be spread all over the world. )

[Useless cold knowledge has added getV again!)

However!

What everyone didn’t expect was that.

When Yang Xu introduced the popular science of insects such as butterflies.

In the live room screen!

The wings were as thin as a cicada’s wings, and the butterflies were transparent and adorned with rose-pink.

it turns out………
