Scientific Sketching
When you make a sketch of a pillbug, don't just draw an oval with a few
squiggly legs - you are expected to do a scientific illustration similar to the
sketch of an earthworm below.
Here are some tips for making an accurate sketch (include in your lab
report)
Determine the relative proportions (length, width, height as well as lengths
of body parts)
Count the number of body segments
Count the number of legs
Locate and label the body parts
Note the overall size of the pillbug
