Amino acids as the building block for the silk protein are generally colorless. Is there any way that a spider could be genetically modified, or somehow the prey be injected with something that would result in the spider producing a web with different colored silk? I would then love to learn if this has any implications on the web structure (both integrity and its ability to attract prey) when compared to a normal web.

brilliant! id love to see that as well

I would look at other environmental conditions, like in nature. Change elements like humidity, heat, wind and see if there are changes in web design.

I wonder if there were 2 spiders in the frame, would they cooperate?

I wonder what role frequencies play (if any)in the tautness and placement of thread? Peter Witt at NCState did experiments about spiders recognizing the difference between prey hitting the web and a raindrop hitting it.

I d like to learn how a spider reacts when a portion/strand of the web is disrupted. Would it mend the damaged portion or knit additional support structures.

The difference in terms of spider web chemical composition depending on which kind of spyder did it, I guess. Also, what if we change the enviormental temperature or humidity or pressure?

Spider eats prey and process of making slik start in spider body, I would like to see the detailed video on how skil is made from spider.

Hello Ladies and Gentlemen,

An experiment to construct on a lab with a spider is to time how long it takes to build its web.

I would put the spider in a box with a glass top.

I would swat flies and open the glass lid on occassion to feed the flies, and count the ones fed.

Over the course of days or hours, i would wait until the spider seems to have finished a web before ending the experiment.

I would like to see the visual representation of web formation.
