MITES HAVE VERY COMPLEX BODILY

                 STRUCTURES
                 What kind of body does this invertebrate, living in a world we
            cannot see and that can be examined only under the microscope,
            possess? Does their body consist of a single cell? Or do they consist

            of several cells combined and a few organelles? Since they are so
            minute, they should have few details, features or organs. Under
            normal conditions these living things have no visible specific vol-
            ume, and it would appear impossible for them to have complex fea-
            tures. So let us see: Is the mite body any different to that of other mi-
            croorganisms?
                 Mites have oval exoskeletons covered with sparse hairs on
            them. The mouth at the front of this hard body has a special struc-
            ture for piercing. Thanks to this

            special structure, the mite can
            tear into small pieces and
            consume the food it finds.
            Eight legs protrude from
            this oval body, and their
            feet are covered in a
            very         important

            Creation—a sticky sub-
            stance that lets the mite                                                HARUN YAHYA

            skin. These eight legs are able to        serve under the microscope,
