The factors affecting the rate at which a cricket chirps |
|
|
|
Introduction:
I have heard crickets
chirp many times and I have always had questions about that. I
wish I could understand them and find out what they are talking
about with such a loud sound and excitement. I noticed that they
often chirp at night and sometimes they chirp more than
others. I have been wondering why do they do this? Is it some kind
of conversation among crickets? |

Are they warning each other about a
danger? Does it mean they are happy? scared? hungry? cold? hot? Is
chirping an indication of being male or female? Does chirping have
anything to do with the wind? moon? temperature? darkness?

chirping (Sex, time of day, Weather temperature). You may optionally
grow crickets for your experiment and use them to conduct your
experiments. |
