Trilobites typically have a total of 18 appendages, which include a pair of antennae, three pairs of maxillae (mouthparts), and five to seven pairs of legs, depending on the species. The legs were primarily used for locomotion, while the antennae and maxillae played roles in sensory perception and feeding. These appendages were critical for their survival in various marine environments during the Paleozoic era.
