One key structural difference between a cockroach and a spider is their body segmentation. Cockroaches have three distinct body segments: head, thorax, and abdomen, while Spiders have only two segments: a fused head and thorax called the cephalothorax, and the abdomen. Additionally, spiders have eight legs attached to their cephalothorax, while cockroaches have six legs attached to their thorax. Finally, spiders have chelicerae (fangs) and pedipalps near their mouthparts, which are not present in cockroaches.
