The most numerous type of animal kingdom is arthropods. There are more than a million species of insects. Among arthropods there are invertebrates with developed wings and excellent air movement. A special place in this kingdom is reserved for spiders.
General information
Scorpions and ticks are also arachnids. Scientists are actively studying this type of arthropod. Part of the invertebrate zoology dedicated to arachnids is called arachnology. This is the science of toxic and non-toxic representatives of this type of animal kingdom, as well as carriers of various infectious diseases and the search for antidotes. Such knowledge is very necessary in agriculture, medicine and veterinary medicine.
Arachnology is the science of the structure, conditions and lifestyle, nutrition, habitat, reproduction and disposal, and sometimes the benefits of arachnids. Scientists classify these animals, study and discover new types.
Arachnology is the science of more than 35,000 arachnids. The most diverse species are ticks and, in fact, the spiders themselves.
Arthropods having a fused body are ticks, and those that divide into the cephalothorax and abdomen are spiders. They have no stretch marks (antennae), and they breathe conceived with the help of the trachea. In adults, 4 pairs of limbs. These organisms are divided into 28,000 species.
The importance of science
It is clear that the volume of knowledge possessed by arachnology is very large. This is the science of species such as scorpions, ricinuleles, frins, tartarids, tentacles, salpugas, false scorpions, hayfields and others. The study of ticks (4 species) is engaged in acarology.
Arachnology became an independent science in the 19th century. She stood out from entomology. Among the researchers in this scientific field are N. A. Kholodkovsky, E. N. Pavlovsky, V. A. Dogel. They and many other scientists have made a significant contribution to its development.
Many issues are very important for human life and farm animals. They relate to the field in which arachnology is engaged. This is a science that studies diseases caused by arachnids (arachnoses). All these points are studied in an integrated manner: with veterinary medicine and medicine.
They are engaged in research work at Zoological institutes, at university departments of zoology, in veterinary, medical and agricultural research institutions.
