The overall effect is of a series of sheets of tissue with air spaces between each sheet. This arrangement means that there is a large surface area here, up to 70cm 2in large tarantulas, across which gaseous exchange can occur. There is considerable variety exhibited by different spider families within this basic pattern. Variation in Spider Respiratory Systems Spider Family

The brain is mainly concerned with association activities. It only receives information from the eyes, via the optic nerve. Most spiders have eyes and while some have exceedingly good vision (in particular the Salticidae, Thomisidae and Lycosidae) for others sight is not very important. Most spiders can detect polarised light which helps them to know where they are in the world.

These arteries branch out through the whole animal, until they become very small. They have open ends which allows the haemolymph to reach the animals tissues. The jumping spiders, Salticidae, are well known for their excellent eyesight. Their two AME eyes are greatly elongated and push deep into the animal’s head. They work like a telephoto lens and have a movable retina to increase the visual field. Strangely they also have four layers of rhabdomeres. The supraesophageal ganglion can again be divided into the cheliceral ganglion and the brain. The cheliceral ganglion controls the musculature of the chelicerae, the pharynx and the poison glands. Compared to animals that have spines, spiders aren’t able to stand up straight. Instead, they have more legs which are designed to hold the exoskeleton in place and move it around efficiently. To be more precise, spiders have eight legs that enable the skeleton to move as an entity.

This means that the structure of a spider’s body is not as complex as human body structure, for example, which has a spine. Like other arthropods, the spider's body is covered with a more or less rigid 'skin' or cuticle (the exoskeleton) made of protein and chitin. The spider cuticle consists of several layers, the outermost being toughest, covered with a thin surface wax layer that helps reduce water loss from the body. The cuticle provides internal attachment points for the muscles and helps in the regulation of blood pressure. While it is hard and protective externally, the cuticle must still accommodate the spider's sense organs - in the form of various types of innervated (supplied with nerves) hairs and pits, as well as the eyes. The cuticle even extends internally, lining the fore gut (mouth to stomach) and hind gut, the tracheal (breathing) tubes and the female's sperm storage organs (spermathecae). This combination of features enables the spiders to survive comfortably in their habitats, even without bones. There are a few main differences between spiders and insects, and one of these is the number of legs – all spiders have eight legs. the pedipalps - that help with food handling, touch and taste sensing and, in male spiders, are modified as mating organs.

In common with most terrestrial tarantula species, Ephobopus murinus feeds on ground-dwelling insects, worms and small mammals.

The funnel weavers (family Agelenidae) spin flat sheets of silk. At one edge of the sheet they build a funnel, or silk tube. During the daytime the spider hides in the funnel with its legs outstretched waiting for the vibrations indicating that an insect has blundered into its net. At night the spiders leave their funnel retreats and stand on the web surface. Spiders are arthropods that have eight legs. They have more legs and different body parts than insects, and they also don’t move around in the same way insects do.

Jumping spiders can also be very tiny. Some of the smallest species only measure 0.04” (1 mm) and larger ones are an inch (2.5 cm) long.

Resistencia Sobrehumana: La musculatura avanzada de Spider-Skeleton produce menos toxinas de fatiga durante la actividad física que un ser humano ordinario. Esto le permite exigirse físicamente durante períodos más largos de tiempo antes de que la fatiga empiece a deteriorar su rendimiento físico. Foelix, Rainer F. (2011). Biology of Spiders (3rded.).

Top 10 facts They are found in most outdoor habitats throughout North America and may come into homes in fall when the weather cools.
