Insects and their relatives are hexapods, having sixlegs, connected to the thorax, each with five components. In order from the body they are the coxa, trochanter, femur, tibia, and tarsus. Each is a single segment, except the tarsus which can be from three to seven segments, each referred to as a tarsomer Homologies of leg segments between groups are difficult to prove and are the source of much argument. Some authors posit up to eleven segments per leg for the most recent common ancestor of extant arthropods but modern arthropods have eight or fewer. It has been argued
 
 <a alt="Arthropod_leg#cite_note-2" class="gcloudimg" href="https://storage.googleapis.com/microcosmosdelta.appspot.com/images/transfer_123021/Arthropod_leg%23cite_note-2">

 that the ancestral leg need not have been so complex, and that other events, such as successive loss of function of a
 
 Hox
 
 -gene, could result in parallel gains of leg segments.

 This a aster flower. It is found in blue,pink,purple,red and white.  Ekya school had taken us to Lalbagh .
 
 Asters
 
 
 are daisy-like perennials with starry-shaped flower heads. They bring delightful color to the garden in late summer and autumn when many of your other summer blooms may be fading.
 
 
 There are many species and varieties of asters, so the plant’s height can range from 8 inches to 8 feet, depending on the type. You can find an aster for almost any garden at garden centers in

 The plant can be used in many places, such as in borders, rock gardens, or wildflower gardens. Asters also attract bees and

 This is a Elephant’s apple .Ekya school had taken us to lalbagh.Its scientific name is Dillenia indica L (Family Dilleniaceae) named after German Botanist Johann Jacob Dillenius (‘indica’ is the Latin word for India).The tree is native to forest river banks across tropical Asia to South-East Asia. Being an important source of food for elephants and other animals like monkeys, deer in North-Eastern India, the tree plays a major role in forest ecology. It is an introduced tree  to gardens and elsewhere  from the forests of North-Eastern India.’Elephant Apple’ is an evergreen or semi-evergreen, medium-sized tree with a spreading canopy. The leaves are large, attractive with a ribbed surface and impressed veins. They are glossy, silky, dark green with teeth-like margins and slightly lemon-scented when crushed.  Flowers are large and solitary at the ends of the twigs. Sepals are rounded and yellowish green; petals, 5, white; stamens numerous, yellow. The flowers face downward and are short-lived. The fruits are yellow-green with a leathery brown covering and brown-black seeds. The flowering season is June to August.
