汉语中有句成语叫“飞蛾扑火，自取灭亡”。为什么蛾子看到火会不要命的往上扑呢？难道它们傻吗？还是执行什么殉道仪式？下面这篇文章可以告诉您飞蛾扑火的原因。[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ 5u]ea.!qY4#"9LB.|uFroG]
To understand this phenomenon, you need to know about phototaxis. It is an organism's automatic movement toward or away from light. Moths are positively phototactic. They seem charmed by your porch light, your headlights or your campfire. While there is no definitive explanation for this phenomenon, there are some interesting theories.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ tz .q0uefL [gh pFroG]
Some types of moths are known to migrate, and it's possible that the night sky gives them navigational clues. A moth's up-down orientation might depend in part on the brightness of the sky relative to the ground. Some lepidopterists suggest that moths use the moon as a primary reference point and have the ability to calibrate their flight paths as the Earth's rotation causes the moon to move across the sky.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ 5mLV1ex XwQq{8+/w�FroG]
It's also possible that moths have an escape-route mechanism related to light. Imagine disturbing a bush-full of moths at night -- they all fly up and out of the bush, toward the sky. To a moth in danger, flying toward the light tends to be a more advantageous response than flying toward darkness.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ Fq5F1jM-y4C %}#]FroG]
Moths are more sensitive to some wavelengths of light - ultraviolet, for example - than they are to others. A white light will attract more moths than a yellow light. Yellow is a wavelength moths don't respond to.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ �mRF{Ax~% 9E6_JSn-FroG]
Another interesting question is: Why do moths stay at lights? A moth's eyes, like a human's eyes, contain light sensors and adjust according to the amount of light the sensors detect. In high illumination, light from each of the moth's thousands of fixed-focus lens facets is channeled to its own sensor. In low illumination, light from multiple lenses is channeled to the same ommatidium to increase light sensitivity. You probably experience a few moments of blindness when you turn on a bright light after your eyes have adjusted to darkness, or when you are suddenly in darkness after being in bright light. A moth's dark-adapting mechanism responds much more slowly than its light-adapting mechanism. Once the moth comes close to a bright light, it might have a hard time leaving the light since going back into the dark renders it blind for so long. In the case that the moth escapes, it won't remember the problem with flying too near the light and will probably find itself in the same predicament all over again.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ A, .��[u{^lZ%{h FroG]
