In my research I am have researched the crickets choice. In my research I learned that crickets will eat anything and even be cannibals. In the choice chamber I put dead crickets and fruits and veggies. They surprisingly chose to be cannibals and only one chose fruit and veggies. I have no hypothesis of why this is except maybe that it was a little easier to get to.

My research has brought me to see meal worms choices. In the choice chamber on one side I put clover and on the other fruit's and veggies. The meal worms loved both there where many in each side but the clover had more. I think it had more because even though the fruit's and veggies are higher quality. I think they chose the clover because it is more like they would eat in the wild and they are more used to it.
I will make a choice chamber that lets me see what they like and why they chose it. They chose it using a chemical called insecticides. Join me and learn more about these amazing creatures by clicking on the new page tab.

OliviaThis is a research project I have made about why insects chose food and what chemical tells them to do it. I hope you enjoy it. ArchivesCategories |
