What are some advantages and disadvantages of long femur lengths (crickets)?​

Biology
1 answer:
MrRa [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer and Explanation:

In crickets, femur length represents a highly important trait associated with jumping performance - an essential behavior for their survival and reproduction.

According to research, these are the possible advantages and disadvantages in regard to long femur length:

Advantages

  • Longer legs [may] provide higher power for the muscles in order to jump.
  • Long-legged crickets generate lower reaction forces while performing a jump, which enables them to lose less energy in comparison with crickets with shorter femur length.

Disadvantages

  • Longer femurs may increase the total take-off time of a cricken prior to a jump.
  • In some cases, longer femurs force insects to develop head or body structures to enable them to 'fit' the legs while they prepare to jump.
  • Increased energy loss while jumping from an elevated leaf.

this has to be broken down to be used but all things get their energy from the sun, producers get it directly, then primary consumers eat the producers, then secondary,and tertiary
but it is all comes from the sun originally
