How Does it Work? - Spider's Web

Sophie, a young naturalist, explores the intricate engineering of spider webs. She learns about the silk-producing spinnerets, the construction of webs, and the different types of silk used for various purposes. Sophie observes the spider's precision in creating sticky and nonsticky spirals and discovers how spiders use their webs as sensory systems to detect vibrations. She is surprised to learn about the web's short lifespan and the recycling process. Sophie's study concludes with a deep respect for the spider's sustainable practices and the complexity of their web-spinning abilities.
