| Posterior end of the grasshopper, it contains digestive and reproductive organs, usually covered by the wings | Abdomen |
| Hard shell & skeleton | Exoskeleton |

| On the front part of the gastrie ceca; helps grind & digest food | Gizzard |
| Long strands at the end of the stomach; collects waste into the intestine | Malpighian tubules |
| Tube running from the stomach to the anus; it absorbs and transports food | Intestine |
| Parts of the leg | Front & middle legs, back legs, femur, tibia, tarsus |
| Used for walking and climbing | Front & Middle legs |
