Features of the nervous system of arthropods

Explain the noteworthy features of the nervous system of arthropods?

E

Expert

Verified

In arthropods, the nervous system has much sophisticated sensory receptors with well-advanced cephalization. In an anterior area of the body there is a fusion of ganglia making a brain connected to two ventral ganglial chains containing motor and sensory nerves. The boosted growth of the sensory system of arthropods gives more adaptive possibilities for such animals to explore lots of different environments.
