What is the difference between chelicerae and mandibles?
Chelicerae and mandibles are both types of mouthparts found in different groups of arthropods. Chelicerae are characteristic of arachnids (like spiders and scorpions) and typically consist of two segments, often functioning as pincers or fangs. In contrast, mandibles are found in crustaceans and insects, featuring a pair of jaw-like structures used for biting, chewing, or gripping food. The key difference lies in their structure, function, and the groups of animals that possess them.

What is an example of an appendage found in arthropods?
The most common appendage would be the leg. Arachnids have eight legs, centipedes have LOTS of legs. I'm not sure how many legs the crustaceans have. I think it's eight. But many crustaceans have modified their two front legs into pincers. And insects have six legs. Another example of an arthropod appendage is the mandible. That's what they have instead of jaws. Mandibles open side to side instead of up and down.
