Spiders and ticks, like insects, belong to the phylum Arthropoda, which means they share key characteristics such as having an exoskeleton, jointed legs, and segmented bodies. However, unlike insects, spiders and ticks are classified as arachnids, which typically have eight legs and two main body segments (cephalothorax and abdomen), whereas insects have six legs and three body segments (head, thorax, and abdomen). Both arachnids and insects are important components of ecosystems, playing roles in food webs and pest control.
