Their ten walking legs, and their split nature (biramous). All their legs are tiny pincers matching the main ones, unless the segment is fused.
What else can I help you with?
How do you know something belongs to the crustaceans group of arthropods?
Crustaceans differ from other arthropods in that they have biramous (two-part) appendages and the nauplius larval form.
What is the key similarity between insects and spiders that distinguishes them from other arthropods?
The key similarity between insects and spiders that distinguishes them from other arthropods is that they both have segmented bodies and jointed legs.
The characteristic that most distinguishes arthropods from other invertebrates is?
The presence of segmented bodies with jointed appendages is the characteristic that most distinguishes arthropods from other invertebrates. This feature allows arthropods to exhibit a wide range of movement and adaptability in their environments.
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 other Phylum is closely related to arthropods and Why?
Roundworms (Nematoda) are related to arthropods because they both molt.Note; Crustaceans are arthropods. :P
What makes crustaceans different from all other arthropods?
Arachnids differ from other arthropods in that they have no antenna (nor wings, like many insects). They also use book lungs to breathe, rather than the gills or spiracle/trachea configuration. They have a body plan of only two sections (tagmata) and eight legs, although often with a modified forward pair different from most other arthropods.
Are all arthropods insects?
No. Arthropoda is a phylum, containing the classes Insecta, Arachnida, Crustacea and Myriapoda - insects, arachnids, crustaceans and centi/millipedes. So all insects are arthropods but not all arthropods are insects. ^^
What unique characteristics distinguish a 6-legged spider-like insect from other arthropods in the animal kingdom?
A 6-legged spider-like insect is distinguished from other arthropods by its body structure, which includes two body segments (cephalothorax and abdomen), eight legs, and usually silk-producing glands. This unique combination of features sets it apart from other arthropods like insects and crustaceans.
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.
Characteristics of Arthropods?

What unique characteristics does a 6-legged spider-looking insect possess that distinguish it from other arthropods?
A 6-legged spider-looking insect, like a spider, has two body segments (cephalothorax and abdomen), eight legs, and usually produces silk. This distinguishes it from other arthropods, which may have different body segments, leg numbers, or lack silk production.
What makes a tarantula an arthropod?
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.
