What is the opposite of the arthropods?
The opposite of arthropods would be non-arthropods or invertebrates that do not belong to the phylum Arthropoda.
What do all arthropods have?
All arthropods have an exoskeleton, segmented body, and jointed legs.
What is the scientific name for animals that live in water only?
Aquatic animals. most of the time they say aquatic wildlife, very few will say aquatic animals
What kingdom are arthropods in?
Arthropods belong to the insect kingdom, because they have 6 legs, and all of their other features are like any other insects features.
Is a lobster an anthropod?
Yes, lobsters are arthropods. They belong to the phylum Arthropoda, which includes insects, spiders, crabs, and shrimp. Lobsters have hard exoskeletons, jointed legs, and segmented bodies characteristic of arthropods.
What do aquatic arthropods exchange gases through?
Aquatic arthropods typically exchange gases through gills. Gills are structures that are rich in blood vessels and provide a large surface area for gas exchange to occur, allowing the arthropods to extract oxygen from the water and release carbon dioxide.
Most aquatic arthropods reproduce by?
Most aquatic arthropods reproduce by laying eggs. These eggs can be deposited on structures in the water or carried by the female until they hatch. Some aquatic arthropods also undergo complex mating rituals or behaviors before reproducing.
Is the trachea found in all arthropods?
No, not all. Remember some arthropods are aquatic; the spiracle/trachea/tracheole system utilized by terrestrial insects is largely replaced by gills in marine arthropods.
Why all arthropods are terrestrial?
Oh, they're not. Crustaceans are arthropods too, and they're aquatic. Almost all insect species fly. They're everywhere.
Is a grasshopper is invertebrate?
No. Grasshoppers are arthropods. Mollusks are usually aquatic, and do not resemble insects.
How do terrestrials arthropods excrete metabolic wastes?
Terrestrial arthropods excrete metabolic wastes in the form of uric acid, which is solid and fairly dry. Aquatic arthropods excrete ammonia through gills or other membranes.
What is the largest group of anthropods?
It is Insecta.The largest group of arthropods are aquatic, so things like shrimp, lobster, (and the most popular) Crab.Crab is the largest group in the arthropods.
How do arthropods reproduces?
They lay an egg, and the egg hatches and is either a nymph or larva, then you should know what happens next!They reproduce sexually, and they reproduce asexually. In most terrestrial arthropods sexual reproduction is carried out internally. In most aquatic arthropods, sexual reproduction occurs externally.
Do aquatic arthropods exchange gases through a tracheal tubes b gills c their exoskeleton d book lungs?
Aquatic arthropods mostly exchange gases through (c) gills; some (like the horseshoe crabs) have book gills. The "book lungs" term usually applies to most arachnids like scorpions and spiders, which are terrestrial; most other terrestrial arthropods exchange gases through special holes in their segments called spiracles, attached to the tracheal tubules/tracheola which connect directly to the tissues.
Which group of arthropods are marine?
The Crustacean group (usually considered a sub-phylum) are mostly marine arthropods, and include krill, shrimp, crabs and lobster; there are non-aquatic exceptions in this group like terrestrial woodlice.
What distinguishes crustaceans from all other anthropods?
Crustaceans are distinguished from other arthropods in that their appendages are biramous (branch into two parts), and that they have a larval form which has a single eye and antennae used for swimming (nauplius). One might also assume they differ from most other arthropods in that they are aquatic, but there are both aquatic non-crustaceam arthropods (like the horseshoe crab and the sea spider), and non-aquatic crustaceans (like the terrestrial woodlouse). Note that the term "anthropod" should not be confused with arthropod - the former is a broad term and not a taxon, meaning human or human-like.
What is the smallet arthopod?
Arthropods can get pretty small, if you consider the flea or the aquatic copepod at only 1-2mm long. The smallest arthropods known are a crustacean parasite, Stygotantulus stocki, around a hundred micrometers long (about 4 thousandths of an inch).
