Internal morphology of the beetle and photography of the animal.

Hi everyone who has always been loyal to this CCH community. Especially for you photography lovers. How are you all doing? May the best news always be with you. On this occasion, I would like to share my photography of an insect called a beetle. When I was relaxing, I suddenly saw this animal and I was interested in capturing it. Some of these photos were taken using my smartphone.

A little about the internal morphology of this animal is: It has a digestive system that is strongly influenced by the plants that are their food source. In general, the digestive process is carried out by the anterior midgut with the help of midgut enzymes. The digestive tract basically consists of a short and narrow, but expandable pharynx, and underdeveloped gizzard. Following this is the midgut, which species vary in size, with a large amount of cecum, with a hindgut that varies in length. Typically, there are four to six Malpighi's tubules.

The second is the circulatory system. Like other insects, beetles have an open circulatory system, based more on hemolymph than blood. Segmented vessels, like hearts, are attached to the dorsal wall of the hemocoel. These vessels have small holes called ostia and circulate hemolymph from the main cavity of the hemocoel out towards the anterior cavity in the head.

Third, this animal has a respiratory system. Like most insects, beetles inhale oxygen and expel carbon dioxide through the trachea. Air enters the body through the spiracles, and circulates within the haemocoel on a system of trachea and tracheoles, through the walls of which the associated gases can diffuse appropriately.

And finally, the nervous system. The nervous system in beetles varies among different species, from three pectoral ganglia and seven or eight abdominal ganglia that can be distinguished from the end of the union of all ganglia to form a composite structure.

That's some knowledge about this animal. Hope this was useful and you liked and enjoyed it. Thank you for everything. See you next time. I take my leave, greetings from a lover of nature and what lies within it.
