These amazing little critters are invertebrates, meaning they don't have a backbone, and are known for their long, cylindrical bodies covered in hard shells. Each segment of their body has two pairs of legs, so when they move, it looks like a wave motion! They come in many colors, from black to brown, and even eye-catching shades of orange or red.  \nThe fascinating wave motion mentioned earlier helps millipedes thrive in their homes. Their habitats are usually moist places like under leaves, in the soil, or within decayed logs, where they stay during the day. At night, they become more active, crawling out to munch on their favorite foods, mainly decaying plant material, but they've also been known to eat insects. These creatures prefer to live where there's plenty of their favorite meals, making them super important for composting and recycling nutrients in the environment.  \nJust like us humans, millipedes have a life cycle, but it's a bit different from ours. They start as eggs, laid in the soil, and when they hatch, they only have a few segments and legs. As they grow and molt-that's when they shed their skin-they add more segments and legs until they become adults. In some species, this process can take up to two years, and they can live for several years after that.  \nYou might be wondering what happens if a predator tries to snack on them. Well, they have a cool defense mechanism-when threatened, they curl up into a tight coil to protect their soft undersides with their hard outer shell. Some species can also release a foul-smelling and tasting liquid to deter predators. So, while they might not win any races with their many tiny legs, millipedes sure are fascinating creatures playing an important role in our ecosystems.  \nSolve each problem.  \nUse the article to answer the question.  \n1) What is the shape of a millipedes body?  \nA. Oval B. Cylindrical C. Flat D. Round  \n2) Where would you normally NOT find millipedes during the day?  \nA. Within decayed logs B. Inside tree trunks  \nC. On top of rocks D.

Release a foul-smelling and  \ntheir skin tasting liquid  \n6) What do millipedes eat?  \nA. fresh fruits B. decaying plant material  \nC. smaller mammals D. the blood of humans  \n7) What is molting?  \nA. when millipedes build their nests B. when millipedes shed their skin  \nC. when millipedes eat a lot of food D. when millipedes gain their wings  \n8) How long can some millipedes live?  \nA. only a few weeks B. up to five months  \nC. up to one year D. several years  \n9) What color are millipedes?  \nA.
