What does the world around us look like through the eyes of a grasshopper (cm)? How does a grasshopper see the world around him?
Many animals and insects have eyes. The tasks of the eyes of humans and insects are different. In addition to ordinary life, insects also need to see as much as possible around them, so that at the right moment they do not allow danger in the form of a predator to approach them, so the grasshopper’s vision is interesting, it has 3 eyes in front and two in the back, while the rear eyes enlarge items. He does not see clear contours, each eye snatches objects from space, the overall picture is formed by the brain.
It is quite difficult for a human to imagine a grasshopper’s unusual vision of the world, since its eye is divided into many small cells, each of which conveys one or another fragment of the surrounding world.
For a more visual representation, I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the picture below, where a vision of a person will be presented on the left, and a grasshopper on the right.
While studying various insects, scientists found that they see the world with their own eyes, not the way you and I do.
For example, let's take a grasshopper. He has five eyes. Three small eyes that are located in front. They help the grasshopper to look at nearby objects.
Two large eyes located on the back of the head. With their help, the insect sees distant objects.
Everything that the grasshopper sees seems huge, enlarged, and broken into pieces.
The grasshopper sees the world completely differently from us. For him it is incredibly huge and very dangerous. Blades of grass are huge green plants whose tops reach to the sky, and each grain of sand is a whole stone. A cat walking across the lawn is for a grasshopper a hefty monster, under whose colossal weight the earth trembles. What can we say about even more enormous creatures called people. Their monstrously large legs can easily crush the poor insect. You have to do your best to jump out of the way of such giants.
And sometimes it starts to rain and huge drops of water, the size of a grasshopper itself, fall to the ground with great speed. You need to be very careful and hide under the trusty leaf in time to avoid danger.
And the grasshopper’s eyes also resemble a net, so he sees the world in the form of such a multi-colored mosaic:
If we speak in children's words, it must be noted that everything around the grasshopper seems very large - all the blades of grass seem very large to him, he lives in his so-called grass forest and grass thickets. It is very easy for him to move - he jumps with ease. He also sings his trill songs and doesn’t think about anything else. He finds food for himself there, in the grass.
Good day.
To begin with, let's say that the eyes of the little green grasshopper are not human-like.
There are more of them (and some are designed for seeing nearby objects, and others for seeing distant objects). In humans (and, probably, in many mammals) there is such an option/function for this as accommodation, when the lens changes its shape and we see objects at different distances.
In addition, the grasshoppers sit in a faceted pattern (that is, in small squares - a bit reminiscent of the popular game Minecraft).
The grasshopper sees the world as if in pixels. It's like playing a very old game. Or how to enlarge a small image. Maybe it’s even something similar to a mosaic. To make it clear, I will give an example of an image that we see on the left, a grasshopper on the right.
Grasshoppers have faceted vision. And grasshoppers see the world around them in separate cells, something like a mosaic. The grasshopper does not see clear contours of the surrounding world, he sees in cells.
This is what it looks like in an example:
The grasshopper is very stupid in its mental development; if it has a brain, it is very tiny. Even if a grasshopper sees something in front of it, it doesn’t matter; the brain won’t be able to correctly process signals from the optic nerves; it doesn’t understand what it is. It’s not for nothing that they even sang in a song about the situation when he was eaten by a frog, he couldn’t even identify the object of danger.
She accidentally dropped the spoon. The sound was stronger than a shot in the silence, And, frightened, she shuddered a little. Her son nervously said: - Mom, don’t rush... And then her daughter-in-law rose up like a snake, As if she had stepped on a needle: - I’m saying that She has no place with us, There are always crumbs on the floor in the kitchen! You know how she got me. Am I supposed to be her servant? So, this is the last time I tell you...
Route to Yekaterinburg. A column appeared from Yekaterinburg. There are about ten buses. Plus military transport. Buses full of our military personnel. Escort of approximately seven VAI vehicles. All with flashing lights. When I was returning back, I met several cars, apparently empty. But. The most interesting thing happened almost upon departure and...
Europe. What's next?
Zeus wanted her too. He didn’t want it “divinely,” but rudely, like a peasant, but also with tricks. For some he turned into a swan, into the bosom of others he poured golden rain. He stole this one, transforming himself into a bull. Fearlessness, as Aristotle said, is born either from experience or from stupidity. She either had to grow up among bulls or be brainless. He looked at...
Where does sadness come from?
Sometimes, for no apparent reason, a person becomes sad. Everyone is healthy at home, and there are no problems at work. Jasmine is blooming, birds are chirping, and the evening promises a fantastic sunset - but the crown of nature is sad. As if he forgot something and can’t remember... Sadness - where is it? In the blood of someone who is sad, or, like a microbe, in the air, and everyone breathes it? When a person moves...
Tales from Lubyanka. All the best goes to children.
There was a museum in the Moscow KGB department. Very curious, there was no end to visitors. But bad luck! From visiting various kinds of delegations, gifts, apparently and invisible, have accumulated in the storeroom. Both carpets and crafts are different. However, for some reason, most of all they brought us cast iron, plaster and even marble busts of leaders. At one time they made a lot of them, but now...
Tales from Lubyanka. External jokes are bad.
In the last years of Soviet power, a diplomat came to Moscow. One of those who belong to the knights of the cloak and dagger. Naturally, the KGB knew about this and did not deprive this diplomat of attention. We worked on it closely. Every step of the spy, every meeting was under control. And he felt it with his skin. And he didn’t like this, because it interfered with bad activities. Note that...
Euthanasia
Today our topic is euthanasia. "Ev" is good, "thanatos" is death. There is also the term “euthelia” - “good ending”. Not only is a person not allowed to conceive, they are also not allowed to die normally - they are trying to eliminate him from the world. That is, “die, you’re in the way, you’re lying here, you know, you’re wasting funds, money, attention, time, energy. And come on...
There is a lot of injustice in life
One old man became a hermit and for ten years prayed to God for one thing: he wanted to know why on Earth some are born and become rich, while others become poor. And why is there so much injustice going on in the World? And so God had mercy and sent an Angel to him. The angel said: “I won’t explain anything. First, just close your eyes.” The elder closed...
If I knew the date of my death
Either I’m thinking, or I’m dreaming... Either it’s a sin, or not... God knows. I’m thinking: if I knew the date of my future death... If, that is, God revealed this date to me, then what? Wow, something interesting and unexpected would come out of this. Suppose the Spirit, Who breathes where it wants, whispers in my ear in the silence of the night: “You have five years left.” And what? Do you think...
COURT IN CHICAGO. YEAR 1924
“Is it fair to hang a 19-year-old boy for drawing practical conclusions from the philosophy that you teach him at the university?” - with approximately these words, back in 1924, a lawyer named Darrow saved two young murderers Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb from the death sentence. These two, imbued with ideas about the “superman” and experiment...
Veto on protection of conscience
Vazgen Liparitovich, our readers ask us whether there is a contradiction in your theses about the benefits of high-volume production in world trade and the need for import substitution for the countries of the Eurasian Union. On the one hand, as an economist, you emphasize that global trade provides opportunities that closed-loop production does not have and cannot get...
Troubles of the 90s
We sang and danced carefree, when few people fought for the truth, The country was divided, only it turned out that the people were left out of work again, It’s stupid to compete with a rogue in deception, the rogue has countless dirty tricks, What we got from all the privatizations was a bottle of vodka and a bucket nails. And now we are trying to be bored, we will destroy everything, but what then, the Lame persistently teach us...
HELL IS IN FULL FIGHTING FOR UKRAINE! CONTROL SHOT
Vazgen Liparitovich, in fact, everything has long been known and described. The problem is not the lack of information, but its form. What is known is known to a very narrow circle of intellectuals, but knowledge reaches the people poorly and rests on the ignorance of the broad masses. So what should we do? Isn't it time for analysts to master the profession of showmen in order to reach hearts in that single...
Joke
Dad, explain what politics is? I’ll explain it to you using our family as an example. Look: I earn money, which means I am the Minister of Finance. Mom runs the household, which means she is the government. Grandfather makes sure that there is order in the house - he is a trade unionist. The housekeeper does all the housework - she is working class. Everything we do is for you, that means you are the people...
Talk.
I bought a ticket, walked to the platform, I slowly walked to the carriage, I packed my things, sat down in a corner, True, I came across a curious fellow traveler. - Why do you need a road? - Why should you go - Why are you alone? - what to find - why do you need a guitar? - what to say - why do you need a string then? - to break it. - why are you looking into the distance like that? - whatever you forget - why do you need eyes? - whatever...
