Answer:

D. insects, arachnids, crustaceans, millipedes

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. All insects have six legs (three pairs of jointed legs) and usually four wings (two pairs).
  2. Arachnids are creatures with two body segments, eight legs, no wings or antennae and are not able to chew.
  3. Crustaceans have a hard, jointed external skeleton, called an exoskeleton, that protects them like armor. They have five pairs of jointed legs, and in some species, the front pair of legs are modified to form strong pincers.

Centipedes can have between 15 and 177 pairs of legs depending on the species (average 35 pairs), and millipedes can have up to 200 pairs.

~Hope this helps your question! ;)
