GENERAL HISTOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Most arthropods move by means of their segmental appendages, and the exoskeleton and the muscles, which attach to the inside of the skeleton, act together as a lever system, as is also true in vertebrates. The external skeleton of arthropods is a highly efficient system for small animals.

Detailed explanation-2: -In arthropods, each of the leg segments articulates with the next segment in a hinge joint and may only bend in one plane.

Detailed explanation-3: -Arthropods move low to the ground using their legs in a tripod fashion, which is inherently stable. Their skeleton provides local control over movement. But the secret to their success is their jointed legs, which act as struts and shock absorbers.
