===APPEARANCE scorpions are easily distinguished by their long sting-bearing tail and a pair of pincers on long arms known as pedipalps at the front of the body despite having six to twelve to six eyes an obvious pair at the===

they can readily distinguish light from dark and appear to have excellent low light sensitivity which helps them to both avoid harsh sunlight and to navigate by star or moonlight.

===FACT //the scorpion is remarkably homogeneous group of over 600 species in general appearance one species of scorpion shows much resemblance to any other although there are variations in size and colour the number of eyes the development of the limbs and certain minor characters as a group they are relatively large the largest is the west african prosma. //=== ===

=== ===//FACT ABOUT MATING// The pedipalps are used in scorpion courtship behavior. The male performs a kind of dance with the female, grabbing her pedipalps with his own and dragging her across the ground until he locates a preferred place to deposit his spermatophore, which is then drawn up into the female's genital pore, near the front on the underside of her abdomen. Some species' courtships include a sexual sting of the female by the male. ===

===//FACT// scorpions are also none as desert dewellers and desert animals===

FACT new born scorpions do not start to take on thier species until they first moult.
===SCORPION VENOM Scorpions are apparently able to regulate the delivery of the venom in scale to the size of their target. Some scorpions are known to produce a transparent prevenom in addition to the more potent opaque venom which is loaded with additional toxin. The use of the prevenom occurs at the initiation of the threat or opportunity. If the action persists, the opaque venom is released. These abilities enable the scorpion to conserve the venom for use when it is needed most, for larger predators or prey.===

===FACT Scorpions have been found in many fossil records, including coal deposits from the Carboniferous Period and in marine Silurian deposits. They are thought to have existed in some form since about 425–450 million years ago. They are believed to have an oceanic origin, with gills and a claw like appendage that enabled them to hold onto rocky shores or seaweed.===
