Humans also unintentionally eat arthropods in other foods, [146] and food safety regulations lay down acceptable contamination levels for different kinds of food material. [ Note 4 ] [ Note 5 ] The intentional cultivation of arthropods and other small animals for human food, referred to as minilivestock , is now emerging in animal husbandry as ...
Arthropods are invertebrate animals having an exoskeleton, a segmented body, and paired jointed appendages. Arthropods form the phylum Arthropoda. They are distinguished by their jointed limbs and cuticle made of chitin, often mineralised with calcium carbonate. The arthropod body plan consists of segments
The following is a list of the classes in each phylum of the kingdom Animalia.There are 107 classes of animals in 33 phyla in this list. However, different sources give different numbers of classes and phyla.
Likewise, the relationships between various arthropod groups are still actively debated. Today, arthropods contribute to the human food supply both directly as food, and more importantly, indirectly as pollinators of crops. Some species are known to spread severe disease to humans, livestock, and crops. (Full article...

Human taxonomy is the classification of the human species (systematic name Homo sapiens, Latin: "wise man") within zoological taxonomy. The systematic genus , Homo , is designed to include both anatomically modern humans and extinct varieties of archaic humans .
Molecular phylogenetic studies suggest that the living arthropods are related as shown in the cladogram below. Crustaceans do not form a monophyletic group as insects and other hexapods have evolved from within them. [1] [2] [3]
