The following text is for question 27 and 28

Grasshoppers belong to insects. They are typically ground-dwelling insects with powerful
hind legs which enable them to escape from threats by leaping vigorously. At high population
densities and under certain environmental conditions, some grasshopper species can change color
and behavior and form swarms. Under these circumstances they are known as locusts.
Grasshoppers are plant-eaters, sometimes becoming serious pests of cereals, vegetables and
pasture, especially when they swarm in their millions as locusts and destroy crops over wide areas.
They protect themselves from predators by camouflage; when detected, many species attempt to
startle the predator with a brilliantly-colored wing-flash while jumping and (if adult) launching
themselves into the air, usually flying for only a short distance. Other species such as the rainbow
grasshopper have warning coloration which deters predatory creatures feed on both nymphs and
