What would happen if a facehugger attached to a Xenomorph?
Facehugger. As the name implies, this Xenomorph will hug your face—but not as a display of affection. This long-tailed, crustaceous alien shoves a slimy appendage down its victim’s throat to impregnate them with an alien embryo. It then detaches from the new host and dies shortly afterward.
Why do Xenomorphs have two mouths?
In the Biology Section it points out that the “tongue mouth” or secondary jaws (or mouth) is what the Xenomorph eats with. (So my original guess that the secondary one would hold the food is wrong – the large mouth holds it if needed.) Even more, the Secondary Jaws can be used as a close-combat weapon.
What is the mist covering the eggs in Alien?
The layer of reactive mist in Alien is probably some form of the aerosolized xenovirus, which may or may not have the same effect it does in Covenant but seems to serve as an intelligent barrier, protecting and alerting the eggs to intruders.
Who survived a Facehugger?
It is unknown if the creature is capable of performing this action in locations that lack an extant atmosphere, such as space, although there has been at least one notable incident whereby James Likowski – pilot of the cargo vessel Junket – was kept alive by a Facehugger despite a loss of atmosphere aboard his ship.
Can a Facehugger impregnate a synthetic?
So the facehugger is essentially putting semen into a host (or ovum) and when combined a chestburster is born. A synthetic body has nothing a xenomorph needs, I can only assume it would fail to thrive.
Was the cat infected in Alien?

How many eggs can a Xenomorph have?
Instead of one Facehugger to an Egg, these Eggs can hold anywhere from two to four, inversely proportional to how well the Hive is doing – if low in number, Eggs will hold up to four Facehuggers, but if the Hive is doing well, only two or sometimes just one.
