  • Hlamba indawo elunyiweyo uze ubeke ipakethi yomkhenkce kuyo ngenxa yeentlungu. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango ukuba iintlungu zinamandla, ziyasasazeka okanye umntu uziva engaphilanga kakuhle.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

  • Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
  • Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
  • Ukuba siyakuluma: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

1

The eyes are all the same size and sit in two rows. They contain few visual cells, so the spider can probably only tell light from dark.1

2

Until 2018, the giant house spider was treated as one species. Research then showed three separate species, which can only be told apart under a microscope.1

3

Males wander while searching for females during mating season, which runs from late summer into autumn. This is when they are most often noticed.1

4

Males have no Y chromosome. Males carry X1 and X2, and females carry two pairs of X chromosomes. This form of sex determination is the most common in spiders and is probably the ancestral form.1
