Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Arthropods (/ˈɑːrrəpɒd/, from Ancient Greek (arthron) ‘joint’, and (pous) ‘foot’ (gen. )) are invertebrate animals with an exoskeleton, a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages. Arthropods form the phylum Arthropoda.

Detailed explanation-2: -The phylum Arthropoda contains a wide diversity of animals with hard exoskeletons and jointed appendages. Many familiar species belong to the phylum Arthropoda-insects, spiders, scorpions, centipedes, and millipedes on land; crabs, crayfish, shrimp, lobsters, and barnacles in water (Fig.

Detailed explanation-3: -All arthropods posses an exoskeleton, bi-lateral symmetry, jointed appendages, segmented bodies, and specialized appendages. The major arthropod classes can be separated by comparing their number of body regions, legs, and antennae.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are over 800, 000 named species in the Phylum Arthropoda, named from the Greek arthros (= jointed) and poda (= foot), including the familiar arachnids, crustaceans, and insects, together with a host of less familiar critters, like centipedes, millipedes and sea spiders. All arthropods have jointed appendages.

Detailed explanation-5: -Insects are arthropods that have three body segments, three pairs of legs, one pair of antennae, and many have one or two pairs of wings. The three body sections are called the head, the thorax, and the abdomen. Wings and legs are attached to the thorax, the middle section.
