All organisms including arthropods SHOULD have characteristics which reflect effective adaptation to their environment for methods which optimize survival. By their obvious success, extensive domain on earth, and vast population one can infer that the observed characteristics meet the requirements for successful adaptation to their various habitats. Arthropod characteristics include joint appendages, an exoskeleton, and a segmented body.

What are the primary characteristics of arthropods?

If you're going to be classified as an arthropod, you'd need to have a segmented body, an exoskeleton made from chitin, and joint appendages.
Are arthropods unicellular?
No. A unicellular organism is an organism made up of ONE CELL, so they're all microscopic. Microscopic means that you can't see it it without a microscope. And you can see a sea urchin, so it is not microscopic, so it's not unicellular.
