Ticks and spiders are both arachnids, but they have key differences in behavior and physical characteristics. Ticks are parasitic and feed on blood, while spiders are predators that hunt and capture their prey. Ticks have a rounded body shape and lack distinct body segments, while spiders have a distinct body with two main segments and eight legs. Additionally, ticks do not spin webs like spiders do to catch their prey.
From how I understand it ticks have chemoreceptors, or organs that can spot chemicals in the air. In a tick's case the chemical is carbon dioxide, which is excreted into the environment anytime any living organism breathes out.
Ticks are small arachnids with oval bodies and eight legs, similar to spiders.

Additionally, ticks have a specialized mouthpart for feeding on blood, while spiders have fangs for injecting venom into their prey.

Lions and crocodiles prey upon adults, but calves are also preyed upon by leopards, wild dogs, and hyenas. Giraffes are often the hosts of parasitic ticks. Giraffes may rely upon red-billed and yellow-billed ox-pickers to cleanse them of their ticks.
There are several types of small ticks, including deer ticks, dog ticks, and lone star ticks. They can be identified by their size, color, and markings. Deer ticks are small and reddish-brown, dog ticks are larger and brown with white markings, and lone star ticks have a white spot on their back. It's important to be cautious around ticks and seek medical attention if you suspect a bite.
