ARACHNIDS
The Arachnids are a class of arthropods Chelicerata of which have been described more than 102 000 species. It includes forms as well known as spiders, ticks and other mites, or Scorpions.
ARACHNIDS
REPRODUCTION
Arachnids may have one or two gonads, which are located in the abdomen. The genital opening is usually located on the underside of the second abdominal segment. In most species, the male transfers sperm to the female in a package, or spermatophore. Complex courtship rituals have evolved in many arachnids to ensure the safe delivery of the sperm to the female.

MYRIAPODS
Myriapoda is a subphylum of arthropods containing millipedes, centipedes, and others. The group contains over 13,000 species, most of which are terrestrial.[2] Although their name suggests they have myriad (10,000) legs, myriapods range from having over 750 legs (the millipede Illacme plenipes)[3] to having fewer than ten legs.

Depending on the species, they can take up to two days.
