How do cockroaches keep themselves safe?
Cockroaches are built to play the defense. They have an exoskeleton to protect their soft bodies. The exoskeleton is not only rigid but flexible to allow the cockroaches to crawl in tiny crevices. Their legs are built for running and they can run at top speed at 200 miles per hour.

Life Cycle of a Cockroach 
The life cycle of a cockroach has three stages : egg , nymph and adult. Cockroaches are oviparous as they lay eggs to give birth to young ones.Each cockroach lays 10-50 eggs in warm and humid spots. The egg hatches at specific conditions to give birth to young ones. Next is the nymphal stage. Nymphs undergo several molts growing a little each time they shed their skin.  After the final molt, the nymph enters  the adult stage and reproduces to start the cycle all over again.
