Arthropods
Chapter 28
Arthropod characteristics
• Segmented bodies
• Tough exoskeleton made of chitin
– Multiple shapes and textures
• Jointed appendages: legs and antennae
Arthropod evolution
• Modern arthropods have fewer body
segments and more specialized
appendages.

Feeding
• Herbivores, carnivores, omnivores,
parasites, blood suckers, filter feeders,
and detritovores
• Variety of mouthparts: pincers, fangs,
sickle-shaped jaws, feeding tubes
stag beetle pincers
Respiration
• Most arthropods
– Tracheal tubes: branching network of tubes
that deliver and expel air through spiracles
• Some arthropods (including spiders)
– Book lungs: layers of respiratory tissue
stacked like pages of a book
Circulation
• Open circulatory
system: heart pumps
blood to tissues,
sinuses, and cavities
but does not return to
the heart directly
Excretion
• Malpighian
tubules: saclike
organs that extract
wastes from blood
and then add them
to feces to move
through the gut

Response
• Sensitive sensory organs (sight, smell,
touch)
• Well-developed nervous system
– Brain
– Ventral nerve cord
– Ganglia: groups of nerve cells
Movement
• Flexor muscles
• Extensor muscles
• Muscle pulling against exoskeleton
enables movement
Reproduction
• Terrestrial arthropods: internal fertilization
– Male places sperm in female
– Sperm sac that female picks up
• Aquatic arthropods: internal or external
fertilization
Growth and development
• Molting: period of
shedding exoskeleton
when outgrown
– Glands secrete
digestive enzymes to
break down
exoskeleton.
– Glands secrete new
exoskeleton.
– Vulnerable stage

Arthropod subphylums
• Crustaceans
• Spiders and their relatives
• Insects and their relatives
Crustacean characteristics

Two pairs of antennae
Two or three body sections
Mandibles: chewing mouthparts
Body plan: celphalothorax, abdomen, carapace
Barnacles have “lost” appendages.
Decapods have chelipeds and swimmerets.
– Ex: shrimp, lobster, crayfish

Chelicerate characteristics
• Four pairs of walking legs
• Chelicerae mouthparts: fangs that sting
and pedipalps that grab prey
• Two body sections: cephalothorax and
abdomen
• Classes: Merostomata (horseshoe crabs)
and Arachnida (spiders, scorpions)
• Spiders have spinnerets, silk glands.

Why insects are evolutionarily
successful
• Flight
• Variety of stimuli responses
• Differential feeding methods between
young and adult
• Different morphology between young and
adult

Insect life cycle
• Metamorphosis: process of changing
shape and form from juvenile to adult
stage
– Incomplete: juvenile stage (nymphs) appear
like adults, just smaller
– Complete: juvenile stage (larvae) becomes
pupa, final stage before becoming an adult

Insects and humans
• Although they can be a nuisance or pest,
insects are significant to agriculture.
• They facilitate flower pollination.
Insect communication and societies
• Chemical cues:
pheromones
• Visual cues: light,
flight patterns
• Some insects form
societies where
castes, groups of
individuals, perform
specific tasks.
