  1. lol

    lobsters FTW!

    lobster≠cockroach


  2. they probably said this because both scavenge for scraps and waste other creaters in their enviroment may leave behind. Both also are Arthropods(arthropods are animals with exo-skeletons/skeletons on the out side they range from centipedes,butterflys,scorpions,shrimp,c... grubs,to lobsters.)

    they are are not related because roaches are insects and lobsters are crustations(crab,shrimp etc.)

    they are as related as the silkworm and the millepede.

  3. Both have exoskeletons.

    Both hide from bright light.

    Both scurry around eating whatever they can find.

    Related? probably not.

  4. They are not closely related, and are different phyla.   They do tend to eat a lot of different things and are scavengers to some extent, though.

    Edit:   I meant different classes.

  5. not at all.

    but they look alike.and they are both axcavenger

    for that reason ...I do not eat them..  ha! ha!

  6. They do resemble eachother in many ways. So, I guess so. I get grossed out looking at lobster and I do not eat seafood because I am allergic.

  7. Yes, Woodo is correct. except that they and cockroaches are both scavengers. So they are both kind of gross.

  8. They are related because they are both arthropods (lifeforms that have "backbones" on the outside of their bodies)  But I would not say that they are the cockroach of the sea.  That doesn't make any sense.

  9. Some people don't like to eat them because they are "bottom feeders", at least I think they are.   But they are delicious bottom feeders!!  YUM

  10. eww that is gross...but if true that is some expensive cockroach!!!
