Millipedes use their legs primarily for locomotion, moving in a coordinated, wave-like motion that allows them to navigate through their environments effectively. With two pairs of legs per body segment, they can traverse various terrains, burrow into soil, and navigate leaf litter. Additionally, their legs help them respond to threats by enabling quick movement to safer areas. Overall, the legs are crucial for their survival and mobility.
centipedes- 700-950 legs millipedes- 350,000-700,000 legs
Diploda being millipedes and locomotion being movement, their legs.
Millipedes have around 300 legs
Millipedes are arthropods. It is a common belief that millipedes have one thousand legs, as their name implies, yet no millipede with 1000 legs has ever been discovered. The movement made by the millipedes' legs is generally described as wave-like.
Millipedes have two pairs of legs per body section, which means they have four legs on each segment of their body. This distinguishes them from centipedes, which have only one pair of legs per body segment.
Yes they have 750 legs
NO! Millipedes are not dangerous. They are small but have many legs. Centipedes are dangerous, so don't freak out over millipedes. I should know cause millipedes are always in my house so I researched them.
Centipedes can have from 20 to 300 legs, depending on species, while millipedes have from 36 to 750 legs. So Illacme Pleniples, a type of millipede, has more legs than any centipede, but Glomeris Marginata, a millipede with 36 legs, has less legs than, for example, Nannarrup Hoffmani, a centipede with 84 legs.

They are if you have a fetish for things with a lot of legs
Centipedes have one pair of legs to each segment. Millipedes have two.
