There are up to 30 million different kinds of insects on Earth, but only about one million are known and described. All insects have three main body parts, have wings and six legs. So a spider is not an insect as it has 8 legs. Insects mate by copulation, and the female stores the sperm, usually for life, and lays eggs periodically. Insect young are either miniatures of the adults, but most often start as wormy looking feeders (larvae) which then form a cocoon-like case (pupa), develop further, then burst out as fully formed adults. This last process is called metamorphosis.
