Which of the five classes of arthropods is the most diverse?
Insecta you nucking retards!
Are arthropods a small group?
Yes, by definition all arthropods are taxonomically related in the sense that they share membership in the same phylum (Arthropoda); although this does not necessarily mean they share a common ancestor.
What is the importance of killing Arthropods?
Do you mean arthropods? If so, your question needs to be more specific. According to National Geographic, arthropods are the single most diverse group of animals. Among that group, you can find a variety from butterflies to tarantulas to horseshoe crabs to ticks to lobsters. So as far as what arthropods kill, you would have to narrow your focus.
Which group of arthropods lack jaws?
