Are earthworms arthropods?
No: in fact, parasites such as flatworms and roundworms also prey on earthworms. Earthworms are highly beneficial, not feeding off living organisms, but breaking down decomposing organic material.
Are sanddollars arthropods?

How many hearts do Arthropods have?

Do arthropods have backbones?
Do arthropods have backbones?No, it is the exoskeleton that holds the arthropod's body together. arthropods are invertebrates, which means they do not have backbones.
Do all arthropods have brains?
Yes, all arthropods have brains.
What are the two major groups of parasites ofmedical importance?
There are three groups of parasites, these are: (i)Protozoan (ii) Helminthes (iii) Arthropods.

What has the author B Herting written?

What do athropods eat?
Arthropods have diverse diets depending on their species. They can be herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, scavengers, or parasites. Some common foods include plants, other insects, decaying matter, blood, nectar, and even small animals.
How man parasites are in the human body?
It is estimated that there are over 1,000 species of parasites that can parasitize humans, including worms, protozoa, and arthropods. The number of parasites in the body can vary depending on the type of parasite and the individual's exposure to them. However, most healthy individuals may have a few parasites without experiencing any symptoms or harm.
Why is molting necessary for arthropods?
Molting is necessary for arthropods because it allows them to grow and develop. As arthropods grow, their exoskeleton becomes too small and rigid, so they shed it through molting to make room for their larger bodies. This process also helps them repair any damage to their exoskeleton and remove any parasites or infections.
How is molting in snakes different from molting in athropods?
Molting in snakes involves shedding their outer layer of skin in one piece, while molting in arthropods involves shedding their exoskeleton in multiple stages. Snakes shed their skin to accommodate growth and remove parasites, while arthropods molt to grow and repair damage to their exoskeleton. Additionally, molting in snakes is generally less frequent compared to arthropods.
Are earthworms arthropods?
No: in fact, parasites such as flatworms and roundworms also prey on earthworms. Earthworms are highly beneficial, not feeding off living organisms, but breaking down decomposing organic material.
Why are arthropods called arthropods?
They express the characteristics inherent to arthropods. All insects are arthropods. Not all arthropods are insects.
Are mites a vector transmitted disease?
No. Mites are parasitic arthropods. They are external parasites, meaning that they do not penetrate the body. They may cause an infestation, but not a disease (or an infection). However, they can be vectors of disease, such as typhus and rickettsialpox.
Are mammals part of the arthropods?
NO Mammals are not arthropods. Arthropods are insects.
Are Arthropods eukaryotes or prokaryotes?
arthropods are eukaryotic because arthropods are animals.
