Question

Insects are small, six-legged animals. There are many different insects, like bees, ants, wasps, butterflies, cockroaches, ladybugs, fireflies, and termites. Other insects include houseflies, dragonflies, mosquitoes, grasshoppers, lice, crickets, fleas, and moths. The list goes on and on. In fact, it would take over 6,000 pages to print the scientific names of all insects on paper.
Over 1.5 million species of animals have been named by scientists. Approximately 1 million of these are insects. Scientists discover 7,000 to 10,000 new species of insects each year. Some scientists believe that 1 million to 10 million species of insects are still undiscovered.
Insects live almost everywhere on Earth. They live in tropical jungles and cold snowy regions. They can be found high on mountains and in deserts below sea level. From caves to the sky, insects can be seen crawling or flying. The only place where few insects are found is the ocean.
