For survival: to eat. The spider will spin the web and then wait for some unsuspecting fly to get caught in it. The fly can't see the web as it is zipping in the air. Then, once the fly is stuck the spider wraps it up and eats. Bon apetit!

Spiders spin webs to catch food.

They spin the webs to trap other bugs. When a bug is trapped in the web, the spider goes and wraps it up in more webbing like a mummy. Then it bites its prey, injecting special enzymes into the trapped bug, which literally liquefies its insides. Then the spider sucks out the liquid for both food and water.

Yep, as a food source. I once saw a spider make a web outside my kitchen window, right below a wasp nest. Well I don't like bees, so I would bang on the window pane and always one wasp would fall into the web. It was very fascinating to watch the spider attack a live wasp!

To catch food, to store food, to help with mating, to keep eggs in, to live in, to store air in (underwater spider) and to keep things out of their homes, to camoflagetheir burrows, to help them fly (baby spiders), they use to help them hear (vibration), when theres a mate about and to stop them from falling i think thats it lol

To trap their prey. That is how they get nourishment from the flies or other insects that get trapped in their web. Also, they usually live there.

To give photographers intersting subject matter. Shoot one in the early morning, covered with dew and glistening with sunshine.

They spin them so their prey gets caught in them.
