The five major classes of arthropods are as follows with one example each: 1. Arachnida; Ex. Spiders 2. Crustacea; Ex. crabs 3. Diplopoda; Ex. millipedes 4. Chilopoda; Ex. centapedes 5. Insecta or Hexopoda (insects)
Under arthropoda are subphyla Chelicerata, Myriapoda, Crustacea, and Hexapoda. There is also an extinct class Marrellomorpha and an the extinct Trilobite subphylum. The chelicerata, like spiders, scorpions, mites, etc., get their name from having appendages appear before the mouth; myriapods like centipedes and millipedes characterized by a high count of body segments and legs; crustaceans like crabs, shrimp, woodlice characterized by their biramous (two-part) limbs and a nauplius larval form; hexapoda named for their consolidated thorax with three pairs of legs.
The term 'class' has a specific denotation within taxonomy, being itself a taxon; there are more than just five classes under these subphyla. Some examples would be class Arachnida, Chilopoda, Branchiopoda, Insecta, and Malacostraca - but there are many more.
Insecta you nucking retards!
* centipedes * horseshoe crabs * insects * millipedes
The category (taxon) for arthropods is called a phylum, a major division in the classification scheme for living things. Arthropods have segmented bodies, an exoskeleton made from chitin, and jointed appendages.
A grasshopper has six legs, so its major group is Insecta.
jointed appendages.
Insecta you nucking retards!
the three major groups are crustaceans spiders and inscets
Insecta...Cant Explain. Sorry. =) Try To Google It...
Spiders have 8 legs and 2 body parts.
The arthropods are a phylum, a larger division than a class. Arthropoda has classes within it.
the five major classes of presidential duties are Foreign Affairs, Domestic and Military Administration, Legislation, Appointment, and Judicial Functions
arthropods have three main examples of it which are sponges,worms,and clams i think by sally
crustaceans
There are not five clean cut classes of arthropoda. There are three classes under the subphylum Chelicerata, which are: Pycnogonida, Merostomata, and Arachnida. Then under the subphylum Mandibulata, there are three superclasses: Myriapoda, Crustacea, and Hexapoda. Myriapoda has four classes: Chilopoda, Diplopoda, Pauropoda, and Symphyla. Crustacea have six classes: Ostracoda, Maxillopoda, Remipedia, Cephalocarida, Branchiopoda, and Malacostraca. The Hexapoda superclass has four classes: Collembola, Protura, Diplura, and Insecta.
* centipedes * horseshoe crabs * insects * millipedes
All insects are arthropods. The phylum Arthropoda contains the classes Insecta (insects), Crustacea (crabs, lobsters, etc), Chelicerata (arachnids) and a few others.
