Difference between Insect and Tick

Insect vs. Tick

Insects or Insecta (from Latin insectum) are hexapod invertebrates and the largest group within the arthropod phylum. Ticks are small arachnids, part of the order Parasitiformes.

Similarities between Insect and Tick

Insect and Tick have 31 things in common (in Unionpedia): Abdomen, Amber, Amino acid, Arachnid, Arthropod, Arthropod leg, Bat, Bird, Blood, Carbon dioxide, Clade, Cretaceous, DDT, Flea, Infrared, Larva, Metamorphosis, Mite, Monophyly, Mosquito, Nymph (biology), Order (biology), Ovary, Paraphyly, Parasitism, Phylogenetic tree, Sclerite, Spiracle, Springer Science+Business Media, Tagma (biology), ..., Vector (epidemiology).

Abdomen

The abdomen (less formally called the belly, stomach, tummy or midriff) constitutes the part of the body between the thorax (chest) and pelvis, in humans and in other vertebrates.

Amber

Amber is fossilized tree resin, which has been appreciated for its color and natural beauty since Neolithic times.

Amino acid

Amino acids are organic compounds containing amine (-NH2) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups, along with a side chain (R group) specific to each amino acid.

Arachnid

Arachnids are a class (Arachnida) of joint-legged invertebrate animals (arthropods), in the subphylum Chelicerata.

Arthropod

An arthropod (from Greek ἄρθρον arthron, "joint" and πούς pous, "foot") is an invertebrate animal having an exoskeleton (external skeleton), a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages.

Arthropod leg

The arthropod leg is a form of jointed appendage of arthropods, usually used for walking.

Bat

Bats are mammals of the order Chiroptera; with their forelimbs adapted as wings, they are the only mammals naturally capable of true and sustained flight.

Bird

Birds, also known as Aves, are a group of endothermic vertebrates, characterised by feathers, toothless beaked jaws, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a strong yet lightweight skeleton.

Blood

Blood is a body fluid in humans and other animals that delivers necessary substances such as nutrients and oxygen to the cells and transports metabolic waste products away from those same cells.

Carbon dioxide

Carbon dioxide (chemical formula) is a colorless gas with a density about 60% higher than that of dry air.

Clade

A clade (from κλάδος, klados, "branch"), also known as monophyletic group, is a group of organisms that consists of a common ancestor and all its lineal descendants, and represents a single "branch" on the "tree of life".

Cretaceous

The Cretaceous is a geologic period and system that spans 79 million years from the end of the Jurassic Period million years ago (mya) to the beginning of the Paleogene Period mya.

DDT

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, commonly known as DDT, is a colorless, tasteless, and almost odorless crystalline chemical compound, an organochlorine, originally developed as an insecticide, and ultimately becoming infamous for its environmental impacts.

Flea

Fleas are small flightless insects that form the order Siphonaptera.

Infrared

Infrared radiation (IR) is electromagnetic radiation (EMR) with longer wavelengths than those of visible light, and is therefore generally invisible to the human eye (although IR at wavelengths up to 1050 nm from specially pulsed lasers can be seen by humans under certain conditions). It is sometimes called infrared light.

Larva

A larva (plural: larvae) is a distinct juvenile form many animals undergo before metamorphosis into adults.

Metamorphosis

Metamorphosis is a biological process by which an animal physically develops after birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal's body structure through cell growth and differentiation.

Mite

Mites are small arthropods belonging to the class Arachnida and the subclass Acari (also known as Acarina).

Mosquito

Mosquitoes are small, midge-like flies that constitute the family Culicidae.

Nymph (biology)

In biology, a nymph is the immature form of some invertebrates, particularly insects, which undergoes gradual metamorphosis (hemimetabolism) before reaching its adult stage.

Ovary

The ovary is an organ found in the female reproductive system that produces an ovum.

Paraphyly

In taxonomy, a group is paraphyletic if it consists of the group's last common ancestor and all descendants of that ancestor excluding a few—typically only one or two—monophyletic subgroups.

Parasitism

In evolutionary biology, parasitism is a relationship between species, where one organism, the parasite, lives on or in another organism, the host, causing it some harm, and is adapted structurally to this way of life.

Phylogenetic tree

A phylogenetic tree or evolutionary tree is a branching diagram or "tree" showing the evolutionary relationships among various biological species or other entities—their phylogeny—based upon similarities and differences in their physical or genetic characteristics.

Sclerite

A sclerite (Greek σκληρός, sklēros, meaning "hard") is a hardened body part.

Vector (epidemiology)

In epidemiology, a disease vector is any agent that carries and transmits an infectious pathogen into another living organism; most agents regarded as vectors are organisms, such as intermediate parasites or microbes, but it could be an inanimate medium of infection such as dust particles.
