No, it's the outside of a mollusc, such as a snail, slug or squid. Arthropods are animals such as insects, crustaceans and arachnids, with a hard exoskeleton as their outside covering.
The external covering on arthropods is called the exoskeleton (or cuticle). It is made of a tough protein called chitin, a long chain polymer comparable to cellulose. Because it's inflexible, arthropods need to shed it (moult) in order to grow.
An arthropod
Nope - it's a member of the Jellyfish family, not an arthropod.

although an octopus has eight arms or tantacles
Chitin
An arthroderm is an external covering of an arthropod.
Exoskeleton/ Chitin
The homophone for "mantel" is "mantle." Both words sound the same but have different meanings; "mantel" refers to a shelf above a fireplace, while "mantle" can refer to a cloak or a layer covering something.

No, a squirrel is not an arthropod. Arthropods have exoskeletons (skeletons they wear on the outside). The squirrel is a mammal and wears its skeleton on the inside.
It is called the exosketon. It is made from a hard protein, chitin, which arthropods often biomineralize for further strength.
The external skeleton used by arthropods is called an exoskeleton.
The external covering of an arthropod is referred to as an exoskeleton. In some arthropods (water varieties) the exoskeleton is composed mostly of calcium carbonate. In land varieties of arthropods, such as insects, their exoskeletons are made of a material know as chitin.
