Verified step by step guidance1
Begin by understanding the basic anatomy of an insect, which is divided into three main sections: the head, thorax, and abdomen.
The head of an insect typically contains sensory organs such as antennae and eyes, as well as mouthparts for feeding.
The thorax is the middle section of an insect's body and is primarily responsible for locomotion. It is where the legs and wings are attached.
The abdomen is the posterior section of an insect's body, which houses the digestive and reproductive organs.
Note that the term 'cephalothorax' is not applicable to insects; it is a term used for arachnids like spiders, where the head and thorax are fused.
