Bill Nye the Science Guy S04E06 - Spiders

Episode Overview

It's important to clarify that spiders belong to the arachnid family, not insects. Unlike insects, which have six legs, spiders possess eight. They are structured with two main body segments: a head and an abdomen, whereas insects consist of three parts: a head, thorax, and abdomen. Additionally, insects feature antennae, which spiders lack. While some insects can sting, every spider has fangs and venom. It’s likely that there are several spiders in your vicinity as you read this.
