All insects, though not always easily visible, have three body segments. First there is the head, then the Thorax, which is also known as the waist of the insect. Lastly there is the abdomen or backside of the insect.

Insects have three main body segments: the head, thorax, and abdomen, which are distinct and serve different functions such as sensory processing, locomotion, and digestion. In contrast, arachnids have two body segments: the cephalothorax (which combines the head and thorax) and the abdomen. Additionally, insects typically have six legs, while arachnids possess eight legs, reflecting their different evolutionary adaptations.
