ELI5: Why do bugs flip over on their backs when they die?
gpt
Firstly, they don’t *always*. But they often do. The reason why is pretty simple. It takes concerted effort and coordination for a bug that has fallen over onto its back to right itself. A bug that is in a weakened condition and near death will likely have neither this coordination nor the strength required. Furthermore, being in a weakened state makes it all the more likely that they’ll lose balance and end up on their back. The result is that a lot of dead bugs are found dead lying on their backs.
