animals in this Phylum are invertebrates that have an exoskeleton, a segmented body, and jointed appendages, 3 cell layers, and are very mobile.This phylum contains creatures such as insects, arachnids, crustaceans (crabs, lobsters, shrimp), and others. Arthropoda is the largest and most varied phylum in the animal kingdom. Arthropods are found in basically every known marine (salt water), freshwater, and land based ecosystem, and vary tremendously in their habitats, life histories, and dietary preferences.
