The Spider's Silk: As part of the arachnid class spiders have two
main body segments: the cephalic thorax and abdomen. Their ability to
produce silk separates spiders from other arachnids. The silk is used to
capture prey in elaborately woven webs, to wrap and protect eggs, and
as a bungee-like cord to move from place to place.Almost all spiders have venom-injecting fangs, which they use to kill
their prey. Some spiders inject a neurotoxin, which affects the victim's
nervous system, typically resulting in paralysis. Others inject a cytotoxic, which damages the victim's cellular tissue.
: Two leg like pedipalps located near the spider's head are used
in a variety of ways. One of the most important is bringing food to the
mouth. In adult males, the ends of the pedipalps are modified and used
for the transfer of sperm during mating.
