The body may be elongated or segmented. Each segment of the Body, bears a pair of appendages. These appendages are modified into Jaws, feet or gills. There is a well developed exoskeleton made up of chitinous Plates on the body. The exoskeleton is protective and supporting in function.

The body is divided into three regions namely head, thorax and abdomen. Muscles found in these animals are complex in their nature and are capable of contraction

The body presence of chitinous exoskeleton does not permit free growth of the animal.

The body presence of chitinous exoskeleton does not permit free growth of the animal. This exoskeleton is shed at intervals and there is a formation of new layer. This process is called MOULTING or ECDYSIS

• HAEMOCOEL: Coelom is reduced and the body cavity is filled with blood

• HAEMOCOEL: Coelom is reduced and the body cavity is filled with blood and is called HAEMOCOEL. This is a colourless fluid. • DIGESTIVE SYSTEM: Digestive system is complete and the appendages near the mouth parts are modified for cutting, piercing and sucking the food items. Pharynx, oesophagus, crop, gizzard, intestine are helpful in digestion.

ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE OF ARTHROPODS Ø Insects help in pollination. Ø Beetles, ants, larvae improve the soil condition by their burrowing activity. Ø Ants and Termites destroy plant waste products and enrich the soil which provides nutrients to the plants. Ø Dung beetle decays animal waste. Ø Some insects help in biological control. Ø Silk moth provides silk which is of great value. Ø Honey Bees provide honey which is a natural antiseptic and also nutritive food, and veewax. Ø Lac insects provides lac used in paints and toys. Ø Arthropods like crab, prawn and lobster are used as food

HARMFUL ARTHROPODS ØSome insects like termites destroy wood materials like furniture, cloth, books etc.
