This may seem like a silly question.....but I have been wondering it for five years now.
Cockroaches have a low center of gravity. They are as close to the ground as you can get. Why is it, then, that when they are ready to die they are on their backs? How do they get flipped over?
Has anyone seen them do the flip? I never have. I only see them struggling, moving those little legs and antennae while lying on their backs. And a bit later, they are dead.
What is the explanation?
