Spiders are fascinating creatures in the world. They could be found under the

ground to the highest mountain Everest, Sahara desert to your house (especially
bathroom because they do need water to survive), almost everywhere in the world.
Before we talk about spider\u2019s web and silk, you might want to know some
common knowledge about this creature. One important thing is: spiders are not
insects; they are below the class of Arachnids, with scorpion, mite, and daddy long

legs.
Most people hate spiders because of their appearance: dark colour, giant (or tiny),

hairy, deadly poison\u2026but the fact is, only few of the spiders could cause people
damage to death, the rest of them
could help us catch mosquitoes, flies,
and other harmful insects live our
environment.

A spider\u2019s anatomy includes 2
body segments: cephalothorax and

opisthosoma. Cephalothorax is the
segment which includes head and
thorax. Another one is opisthosoma, or
abdomen, includes its organs and
spinnerets. Spinnerets are the movable
telescoping finger-shaped organs
where produces silks.

Spiders have 8 legs with 6 joints
