Muscles & Movement
IMPORTANT CONCEPTS:
• All striated (no smooth)
• Major Types: 1) Synchronous 2) Asynchronous
• Motion often driven by both muscles and cuticular flexure + energy storage

Caterpillar body wall musculature; functions: undulatory movement & hydrostatic skeleton.

![Page 11: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Types of Movement
LarvaeSinuous motion, lateral muscular waves, some primitive fly larvae e.g midgesUndulatory movement, anterior + posterior waves, typical of moth & butterfly caterpillarsWhip-like, posterior + anterior waves, used with turgor muscles some caterpillars such as inch worms
Adults Walking, leg strokes Jumping, aided by cuticular flexion Swimming, aided by hairs, special appendages Flying, aided by cuticular flexion at wing base & whole thorax
![Page 12: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Typical “tripod gate” of an insect, maximum center-of-gravity stability with simplest mechanics and control.
Action:Thoracic muscles pull on leg bases; fine control by extension & flexion of internal leg muscles
Rhythm: slight offset between legs: 1-2-3 & 1-2-3 … it’s a waltz!
![Page 13: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The main power source comes from the release of energy in the cuticle, which has been “cocked” by the muscles. Super-flexible resilin allows extreme bending of the joint.
Visible “chevrons” = muscle attachments to cuticle.

SwimmingOften assisted by paddle-like appendages &/or hairs that fold backward on protraction, reducing drag.
In aquatic beetles, the different syncopation of swimming legs is characteristic of some families.

Circulatory System
Main Points:
• Blood = “haemolymph”
• Generally not pressurized
• Does not distribute oxygen
• Heart (“aorta”) is dorsal
![Page 17: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Tracheal System
Main Points:
• Oxygenation of tissues is accomplished mostly by
passive diffusion
• Double diffusion gradients: O2 (in) & CO2 (out)
• Basic structure: spiracles =>tracheal system=>
ending in tracheoles
• Insect size partially determined by physical limits to
diffusion & tracheal system
![Page 23: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Tracheal System
tracheole-tissue interface
![Page 24: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
taenidia
Tracheoles
• Interface with O2-demanding tissue
• Beginning of CO2 diffusion gradient
• Microscopic blind-end• Liquid-filled• May penetrate tissue
• Most numerous at highly active tissue
• Can proliferate in response to long-term O2 deprivation
The end terminals of the tracheal system.
Spiracles
• Interface with environment
• Beginning of O2 diffusion gradient
• Generally one pair per segment (up to 10 seg.) but varies between species; position, shape, number may be characteristic of taxon
from Gullen & Cranston 2000
![Page 25: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Physical Basis of Tracheal system: Diffusion
Longest known modern insect (body):Megaphasma denticris (PHASMATODEA)~ 30 cm long, native of SE Asian tropics. Long, slender body => shorter diffusion distance
• Limits: diffusion only works over thin layers of tissue; increased requirement for tracheation with increase in size.
• Implication: Insect size limited by air supply. Most “large” insects are long and slender, or have low metabolism, or display short durations of activity&/or are highly tracheated. Tiny insects have reduced tracheae because they can breathe through their outer cuticle.
Amongst tropical slow-moving rhinocerous beetles are the most massive modern insect species. Surprizingly, most can fly. Internally they are filled with a dense mass of tracheae.
![Page 26: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Modification & Control of the Tracheal System
Basic Division into sections: spiracle => (trunk) => trachea => tracheole
Subdivision & specialization trunks & air sacs tracheole proliferation gills aeriferous tracheae
Control of flow spiracular valves water-conserving matrices, filters atrial chambers
Movement-assisted air flow (“breathing”) Thoracic/Abdominal pumping (trunks as “bellows”) Tracheal contracting
![Page 27: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Air Sacs
• Adaptations for more effective air supply during flight, i.e. high oxygen expendature.• Expansion of lateral tracheal trunks.• Present in many flying insects.• May take up large proportion of body cavity.• “Bellows” or quasi-lung function.• Depends on adaptation of abdomen for “pumping” action.
Air sacs in the honey bee.
from Snodgrass ca. 1935

The Physical or “Gas Bubble” Gill• Underwater respiration with an open tracheal system• A bubble of atmosphere is captured…• …and serves as a gas-transfer chamber and water-stopper
![Page 31: TODAY: Structure & Function Part I Muscles & Movement Blood & Circulation Tracheal System & Gas Exchange.](https://reader030.fdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032804/56649e535503460f94b48b3d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Modifications of the Cuticle for Aquatic Respiration
Subelytral space in a predaceous diving beetle; it physically traps a temporary sir supply.
The “plastron”, physical gill integrated into the integument; channelized cuticle with hydrophobic hairs; it holds a bubble by physical entrapment and surface tension.
