Solution
The correct option is C Jointed legs
- Silverfish, scorpion, crab, and honey bee belong to phylum Arthropoda.
- Phylum Arthropoda is the largest phylum in the kingdom Animalia.
- All the organisms of this phylum have jointed legs, a bilaterally symmetrical and segmented body, an open circulatory system, and a blood-filled coelomic cavity.
- So, all these organisms have jointed legs as a common feature, which is also one of the most distinguishing features of the phylum Arthropoda.
- All insects and crustaceans have compound eyes like honeybees, silverfish, and crabs, etc.
- But in other classes of phylum Arthropoda like Arachnida, simple eyes are present.
- Scorpions are animals in the order Scorpiones, under the class Arachnida.
Thus, the correct answer is option 'C'.
