Update: There's a piece of jewelry I like, and it comes in both bronze and gold. The price difference between these two is only about $20 ($250 vs $230). Personally, I like the way the bronze piece looks a bit more than the gold, especially since it isn't a fancy-type jewelry. It's more indie or... show more There's a piece of jewelry I like, and it comes in both bronze and gold. The price difference between these two is only about $20 ($250 vs $230).
An arthropod (from Greek arthro- , joint + podos, foot) is an invertebrate animal having an exoskeleton (external skeleton), a segmented body, and jointed appendages. Arthropods form the phylum Arthropoda, and include the insects, arachnids, myriapods, and crustaceans.rthropod hatchlings vary from miniature adults to grubs and caterpillars that lack jointed limbs and eventually undergo a total metamorphosis to produce the adult form. The level of maternal care for hatchlings varies from nonexistent to the prolonged care provided by scorpions.
Arthropod bodies are divided into segments. However, a number of segments are sometimes fused to form integrated body parts known as tagmata. This process of fusion is called tagmosis. The head, thorax, and abdomen are examples of tagmata. Arthropods also have appendages with joints (the word arthropod means jointed feet). In early, primitive anthropods, each body segment was associated with a single pair of appendages (attachments).
