DESCRIPTION:
AFTER SERVING ITS PURPOSE AS A CUNNING SNARE FOR
INSECT PREY, THE WEB OF THE HOUSE SPIDER BECOMES JUST
ANOTHER COMPONENT OF HOUSHOLD DUST. THIS SCANNING
MICROGRAPH REVEALS THE FINE FIBERS OF THE WEBBING
PRODUCED BY THE SPINNERETS IN THE SPIDER'S ABDOMEN.
EACH FIBER WHEN FRESHLY SPUN IS AS STRONG AS THE
SAME CALIBER OF STEEL.
