17 sty 2019 · This diagram represents a generic insect and shows the essential internal organs and structures that allow an insect to live and adapt to its environment. Like all insects, this pseudo bug has three distinct body regions, the head, thorax, and abdomen, marked by the letters A, B, and C respectively.

The thorax is the second morphological region of the body and it bears the locomotion organs, represented by the legs and, in winged insects, by the wings. In all Insects it is composed by morphological and structural organization of the first three postcephalic segments, named prothorax, mesothorax, and metathorax, in order anteroposterior.
The thorax itself consists of three segments, which are easiest to see on the lower, or ventral surface. The prothorax is the first segment, nearest the head, and carries the first pair of legs. The mesothorax is the middle segment, and carries the second pair of legs.
The thorax is truly an amazing and very interesting part of the insect body. It has evolved complicated, yet very efficient mechanisms to accomodate both walking and flight.
