Which region of the grasshopper's body is specialized for sensory functions?

Answer 1

None. As with other creatures, the grasshopper's sensory organs are distributed to different parts of its body.

The grasshopper uses organs spread throughout its body, such as cerci on the abdomen, antennae and palps on the head, and receptors on the legs, to detect touch.

The taste and smell organs are found in the mouth and antennae, respectively.

A tympanal organ located at the base of the abdomen (Acrididae) or at the base of each front tibia (Tettigoniidae) is used by the grasshopper to detect sound.

The compound eyes of the grasshopper insect are responsible for its sense of vision, whereas the simple eyes (also known as ocelli) detect changes in light intensity.
