Crayfish are classified as arthropods, because of their characteristic segmented bodies, chitinous exoskeleton, and joint appendages.
A crayfish has one heart that contains two chambers
Arthron = joint, pod = leg. They're named for their jointed legs.
Arthropod skeletons differ from ours in that they are external, or exoskeletons. By contrast ours are internal, or endoskeletons.
Tarantulas and other spiders are classified as arthropods by virtue of their physical characteristics. In taxonomic classification arthropods branch into two major subcategories, the chelicerates which include arachnids, and the mandibulates which includes the myriapods, crustaceans and insects. These all share the broad definition of arthropoda which is characterized by joint appendages and possession of an exoskeleton.
Arthropoda is a latin word, and the two parts Arthron and poda translate from greek as Joint (Arthron) and Foot (poda). So it means jointed foot.
Arthron = jointed, pod = leg or limb. ^^
The tagma of a crayfish is the Cephalothorax because it is made of two fused segments. The tagma of a crayfish is the Cephalothorax because it is made of two fused segments.

known as Koura or freshwater crayfish, there are two species of the genus Paranephrops native to New Zealand.
Yes. They are either crane flies, which are insects, or two other types of arthropod related to spiders. In different places all three are called daddy longlegs.
After shedding its exoskeleton, a crayfish hides because it becomes vulnerable to injury and attacks from predators. The crayfish sheds its exoskeleton when it needs to grow. It can take two to three days for a crayfish to re-grow a new and larger one.
Chitin is a tough, flexible polysaccharide that provides structure and support in the exoskeletons of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi. It is biodegradable and has antimicrobial properties, making it a valuable material in various applications such as wound healing and agriculture.
