Cockroach is an invertebrate that can walk, climb as well as fly to a certain height in the air. The body of cockroach is divided into three parts which include the head, thorax and the abdomen.
The cockroach has three pairs of legs and two pairs of wings which help in movement. The three pairs of legs help in walking and the two pairs of wings help them in flight.
Cockroach
The body of cockroach is covered with a hard skeleton that is made up of several plates linked together. These plates permit the movement of the cockroach.
Important!
The two pairs of wings are found attached to the body behind the head.
The cockroaches have distinct muscles.
The muscles near the legs aid them in walking, the body or the breast muscles are responsible for the movement of their wings during flight.
The cockroaches are known for their speed among the other insects as they are the insects that run very fast on the land.
