A few frequent uses are pollination (bees and bumblebees account for 66% of our crops, we simply wouldn't have fruit, bread and more without them as plants wouldn't bear fruit and seeds), silk production (silk moth), and pest control (using predators and parasites). Of course, we also use many crustaceans as food, and we might start using another arthropod group for that as well in the near future - insects themselves. Many cultures in Africa and Asia already do, and Australia, too, occasionally dines on 'sky prawns', being locusts!

Do all arthropods use spiracles to get oxygen?

Not all arthropods use spiracles to obtain oxygen, but many do. Spiracles are openings on the exoskeleton that lead to a network of tracheae, allowing gas exchange. Aquatic arthropods, such as many crustaceans, typically use gills instead of spiracles for respiration. Therefore, while spiracles are common in terrestrial arthropods, they are not universal among all arthropods.


Do humans belong to anthropods group?
