Are the largest group of invertabrates.

the word 'arthropod' means 'jointed leg'.

their bodies are also divided into segments.

they rae supported by a hard skeleton on the outside on the body called an exoskeleton when they grow too big for their exoskeleton, they moult and grow a new one.

on their heads are feelers or antennae.

4.arachnids

if u want any moe info about the 4 groups ask me
