    This document discusses the key physiological systems of insects including the circulatory, digestive, nervous, excretory, respiratory, and reproductive systems. It provides diagrams and descriptions of each major system. For example, it outlines the foregut, midgut, and hindgut of the insect digestive system and labels the main parts of the circulatory system including the dorsal blood vessel and ventral blood vessel. It also lists the main types of insect reproduction such as oviparity, viviparity, and parthenogenesis.

    Types of Reproduction
    1- Oviparity:- lay fertilized eggs. e.g. Grasshoppers, butterflies
    2- Viviparity:- eggs hatch within female insect and young
    ones are laid. e.g. Aphids
    3- Parthenogenesis:- lay unfertilized eggs. e.g. Whiteflies,
    Thrips
    4- Paedogenesis:- Immature stages (larvae/pupae) start
    reproducing parthenogenetically. e.g. Cecidomyids & Midges
    5- Polyembryony:- When two or more larvae are produced
    from single egg. e.g. Parasitic wasps
    6- Hermaphroditism:- Individual having both male &
    female reproductive organs. Phorid flies, Scale insect
