The vertebral column or spine comprises individual bones (vertebrae) as part of an internal skeleton or endoskeleton. Arthropods differ in that they have no bony internal skeleton, instead they rely on an external or exoskeleton, whose rigidity creates the defining characteristics of the arhtropod phylum; the joint appendages and segmented body.
Earwigs do belong to the Phylum of Arthropods. The characteristics of arthropods is an external skeleton, a segmented body, and jointed appendages.
yes
Possibly segmented worms. Primitive arthropods include centi- and millipedes, with many unspecialized legs (legs in more advanced arthropods often specialized to form antennae, mandibles and pedipalps), and they're as long and thin as segmented worms. Also, there's a possible 'intermediate form', Peripatus, the velvet worm, being long, thin and soft-skinned, but also having many stubby legs!
No. Leeches are annelids, also known as segmented worms.
Arthropods and sponges are two major divisions in taxonomy called Phyla (singular, phylum). Phylum Arthropoda ("joint appendages"), or the arthropods, includes such creatures as insects, spiders, millipedes, crustaceans, etc. Phylum Porifera ("pore-bearing") are the sponges.

Yes, molluscs fit into the group known as protostomes.
Porifera (Sponges)Cnidaria (Coelenterates)Flatworms (Platyhelmenthes)Roundworms (Aschelmenthes - Nematode)Segmented worms (Annelids)Mollusks (Soft-Bodied/ hard shelled Animals)Echinoderms (Spiny-Skinned Animals)Arthropods
Crayfish and shrimp (Arthropods), Dolphins (Cetaceans), Eels (Anguilliformes), Fish (Agnatha, Chrondrichthyes, and Osteichthyes), Fly larvae (Insects/Arthropods), Hydroids (Actiniaria), Snails (Mollusks), Water mites (Arachnids/Arthropods), Worms (Oligochaetes), Worms (Nemetodes).
An invertebrate is an organism that lacks a backbone. The 6 groups of invertebrates are sponges, cnidarians, worms, mollusks, echinoderms and arthropods.

Athropods. Certainly!

In total there are 8 groups of invertebrates:-Insects-Arachnids-Crustaceans-Millipedes-Worms-Molluscs with shells-Molluscs without shellsThe groups of Invertibrates are Coelenterates, Echinoderms, Mollusks, Arthropods, Annelids, Plathelminths, Poriferas and Nematodes.
A Sponge is a sponge. Coelenterates include all the types of corals, hydra, jelly fish. Worms include ribbon, tape, hook, heart, ascaris, earth worms. Mollusks include clams, mussels, barnacles, oysters, octopi, squid, nudibranchs. Arthropods include crabs, lobsters, scorpions, spiders, insects.
An Invertebrate is a creature with no back bone. The most common invertebrates include protozoa, annelids, echinoderms, mollusks and arthropods. Example of invertebrates: worms, snails, starfish, spiders and crabs.
No, worms are not arthropods because they do not have a shell. All arthropods have an external shell or an exoskeleton which is used to define them or classify them.
