Answer:

Insects belong to the class Insecta, and arachnids to the class Arachnida; both classes fall under the Arthropoda phylum, along with crustaceans (crabs, lobster and shrimp). All arthropods have an exoskeleton and jointed legs. They have segmented bodies and appendages, which are divided into different segments. Arachnids belong to an even larger group of animals called “arthropods” which also include insects and crustaceans (lobster, crabs, shrimp, and barnacles).
