INSECT ORIGINS

Insect Origins. What Did the Insects Come From? Some of the earliest arthropods (or, for that matter, animals) to walk on land and breathe air were the scorpions, centipedes, and millipedes. These found themselves on land as much as 400 million years ago. The oldest insect fossils date back to the Carboniferous and exhibit wings and other INSECT FLIGHT: EVOLUTION The most accepted theory of the origin of wings suggests that they grew out of a gill-like apparatus present in the very earliest insects. Some of these gills may have grown over time, after they were supplanted in the adults by tracheae, to form little flaps.

MASS EXTINCTIONS

Mass Extinctions Several mass extinctions are recorded in the fossil record. Paleontologists have been able to recognize patterns within and between extinction events. Currently, there are five major extinction patterns recognized.
