- StudentDude that is awesome
- StudentFor climbing
- StudentWHAT R THE BUMPS
- Studentwhat is an entomologist???
Bugscope Teamthey are scientists who study insects
- Studentwhat is awesome
- Studentwhy does it have bumps on its legs
- StudentDo the bugs have color?
Bugscope Teamthey don't have color the way we are imaging them because we are using electrons rather than light - the images come to us as signal, in grey scale
- StudentWhat type of spider is it...
- StudentSpiders scare me... 0.0
- StudentWat is happening
- StudentWhat is that
- Studentwat is that
- Studentwhat happend
- Studentwhats happening

- Studentoh thx
- Studentis that FUNGGUS??
- Studentwhat is that thing
- Bugscope Teamhydbmd has control
- StudentIs this a bacteria?
- Studentwhy is everything in black and white?
Bugscope Teamgood question! it is black and white because we are using electrons to gather the image, not light, and since color is an aspect of light, we don't have color
- Studentwhat is that?
- StudentWhat species is a bug
Bugscope TeamA species is a name given to any group of animals that can breed with each other and produce fertile offspring. Species have to be in the same phylum, class, order, and genus and mostly they look alike. There are several million species of insects.
- Studentwhat kingdom are these in?

- Studentwhat is it
- Studentwhy don't bugs breath through their mouth like us
- Studentthis is the coolest thing that i have ever done online before
- Studenthow do you get up that close to the insect???
Bugscope Teamusing electrons, these are images from an electron microscope

Bugscope Teamelectrons are part of atoms, they orbit around the nucleus of an atom
- Studentrobert go to the spider head
- Student wow
- StudentDo all bugs have exoskeltons?
Bugscope TeamYes
- StudentSI SENORITA
- Studentdo bug bites grow into infections
Bugscope TeamIf they get infected--if bacteria establish within the wound, then it will get infected. Insect bites generally do not cause bacteria infections
- StudentIt's senor

- Studentdo humans have exoskelotons?
- Studentwhat is the difference btween a insect and crustaceans?
- StudentEw, EW EWWWW!!!
- Studenthow does the mold decompose the insect
Bugscope TeamIt secretes digestive juices that break down the cells, then absorbs the digested cellular materials
- StudentAre those legs
- Bugscope Teamthis is the head of a beetle
- StudentSo does all mold eat dead things or...?
- StudentWhat are those holes on it for?

- Bugscope Teamwe just hope every student has a chance to ask and have a question answered
- Bugscope Teamwell, not too many questions, but some of the non-questions can be distracting
- Bugscope Teamno we like that they ask all those questions. we just try to get to them all
- Bugscope Teambut, we don't want to be hard core police. we want the kids to have fun too!
- TeacherI will be sure to speak with the students when they return. It is hard to monitor 30 students and their questions. YOu are doing a great job.
- Bugscope Teamif science is NEVER fun, then who in their right mind would want to go into it?
- TeacherThey are having a lot of fun.
- Bugscope Teammrs. nielsen, it is totally fine. you are doing great too.

Bugscope Teamants often look like theyhave insect legs sticking out of their mouths, if that's what you are talking about. Those are its palps which are used to help eat food or taste food
- Bugscope TeamOh! No that is his abdomen
- Bugscope Teamit's a live image, you know
- Bugscope Teamfrom the electron microscope
- StudentTyler powlle

- StudentHow small are ants compared to flies. Do you KNow?
Bugscope TeamFlies and ants both vary greatly in size. There are ants that are the size of paper wasps, and they are flies the size of bumblebees. And then there are tiny flies and tiny tiny ants.
- Studentwhy was the ant curled up
- StudentIS THIS LIVEE
Bugscope Teamyes this is live imaging - but the insects/arthropods are dead

- StudentNo
- StudentNO
- Studentyeah can you open the rolly polly
- StudentHow long do most of these insects live?
- Studentwhat happens when the rolly polly dies? does it curl up?
- StudentWhy do rollie pollies roll up??
Bugscope TeamTo protect their soft bellies from predators
- StudentNO THEY HAVE EARS
Bugscope TeamInsects and other arthropods sometimes have structures that are similar to our ears in that the have a thin membrane that senses vibrations of a certain wavelength. Most arthropods sense vibration with small mechanosensory hairs all over their bodies
- Bugscope Teamthe samples we are imaging are all inside the vacuum chamber of the scanning electron microscope, which you are driving from your school
- StudentWOWWWW
- StudentPoke Poke a the top
- StudentWOWW
- StudentIs it blurry or is it supposed to look like that
- Studentis that thing around it like a shell?
- StudentWHAT R THE THINGS

- Studentthats the micro scope
- StudentThats awesome dude and dudets
- Studentcool]
- Studentthank you~!
- Studenthow many are in there?
- StudentTahts a small room scope
- Bugscope Teamthe electrons come from the cone-shaped thing at the top
- Studentwhy do you pile the bugs on there???
- Studentare those all OUR bugs?
- Bugscope Teamand the platter has all of the critters on it, yeah
- StudentWow how can WE control it???
Bugscope Teamwe can give only one person control at a imte
- StudentDUH!!!
- Studentwhere are you guys studying at??????
- Bugscope Teamevery bug is yours except the assassin bug
- StudentHOW LONG DO BUS LIVE???
- Studentthis is really cool
- Studentwhy do some bugs have hairs to sense things even if they have eyes and a nose?
- Studentwait so for the rolly polly is the body like inside?
- StudentWHAT R THEY
- Bugscope Teamwe are at the University of Illinois, Beckman Institute
- Studentwhats an assasin bug
- Bugscope Teamtime
- StudentWeirdness @_@ zoom back in!!!!
- StudentWhat is a spiders biome??!!

- Studentwhy are they all one one disk and not on seperate ones?
- Bugscope Teamthis is the spider
- Student~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~what is that~~~~~~~~
- Bugscope Teamwe are at the U of I, but we are not students, we work at the Beckman Institute
- Studenthow do all those bugs stay on that little scope??
- Studentwhat are those
- StudentBLACKness
- Studenta spider (i think)
- Studentwow what is that?
- Student@- _ -@ What is that!!
- Studentwhy are sppider head so hairy
Bugscope Teamthe spider needs to be very sensitive to vibration, and so it has lots of sensory hairs
- StudentOG THANX
- Bugscope Teamthis is paper from the paper wasp nest you guys sent
- StudentAssasin...
- Studentit looks like sand
- Studentis this a wasp nest?????
Bugscope Teamyes it looked like a paper wasp nest, these are all paper fibers
- StudentIt looks like a spider web
- Studentare those little sticks
- StudentWhats the bark stuff?
- Studentpaper wasp? is that like a wasps home?
Bugscope TeamA paper wasp is the kind of wasp with the thin wings that builds little clusters of cells in the corner of your porch or carport?
- StudentWait we learned the rolly pollys live in moste areas... How do they walk on the sidewalk like we do for a long amount of time without suffocating?
- StudentNA LOOKS LIKESPIDER WEBS
- Studenthave you looked at these bugs before?
- StudentI've been there
- Studentreally thats why its hairy?
- Studentwhat is the wasp nest made of?
Bugscope TeamYes, they gather fibrous material from the environment, chew it into pulp and make a paper out of the pulp and their spit. Yummy.
- StudentWait we learned the rolly pollys live in moste areas... How do they walk on the sidewalk like we do for a long amount of time without suffocating?
Bugscope Teamthey probabkly can't stay out in the sun too long

- StudentWait soooo are you gana show the same bugs to the other classes?
Bugscope TeamNope, we never reuse the same specimens.
- StudentDO CHERRY CREAM PUFFS EVEN EXIST
- Studentare these the bugs we collected?!!!!!
- StudentWasp man
- Studenthow many bugs do you have on the scope thing?

- Studentwhat is that part of the centipede?
- StudentWhy do most bugs live under rocks?
Bugscope TeamI don't think you could say that most insects live under rocks. Just as many live in trees or in a cornfield. Some insects live under rocks and logs because it is relatively moist, warm, and protected...it is kind of a good place to live.
- StudentI think evry thing has bacteria on it

Bugscope TeamYou have to really like what you are doing, because sometimes it is hard and frustrating. But if you are really passionate about insects, or microscopes, or birds, or whatever kind of science you are interested in, it will be worth it and you will want to stay in school and learn all you can about the subject that you study...in my case, it was insects
- Studentwhere do the hairs come from on a insect like do they grow

- Studentwhy do ants have soo many little dots on their eyes?
Bugscope TeamClemintine sometimes they have very few dots (ommatidia, or facets), and some ants do not have eyes. But they all have antennae, which are more useful to an ant.
- Studenthi rj money
- StudentWAT DOES THE BEETLE EAT

- Studenthow many segments do beetls have and and how do they differ from ants
Bugscope TeamBeetles are in a different order than ants. They share the characterstics of all insects, six legs, two antennae, a head, thorax and abdomen. Ants are closely related to wasps and bees. Ants do not have a shell, like beetles do, and ants live in colonies, which beetles rarely do.
