SOWING BY SPRINKLING

Throughout the summer, poppies expose their fruits in the form of dry capsules that show small openings under the upper disc where the tiny seeds appear when the plant is shaken by the wind.

Al llarg de l’estiu, les roselles deixen al descobert els seus fruits en forma de càpsules seques que mostren unes petites obertures sota el disc superior per on surten les diminutes llavors quan la planta és sacsejada pel vent.

The bush crickets, who make the song by rubbing the base of the wings between them, have the hearing organs next to the front tibia.

Els ortòpters, que fan el cant fregant la base de les ales entre elles, tenen els òrgans auditius al costat de les tíbies anteriors.
