What's the difference between arthropod and myriapod?
Arthropod
Definition:
(n.) One of the Arthropoda.
Example Sentences:
(1) King crabs (Family Lithodidae) are among the world's largest arthropods, having a crab-like morphology and a strongly calcified exoskeleton.

(4) The intensity of light for reliable cell killing (0.5 MW.m-2) was much greater than that used to kill arthropod neurones.
(5) The microsporidia are a group of unusual, obligately parasitic protists that infect a great variety of other eukaryotes, including vertebrates, arthropods, molluscs, annelids, nematodes, cnidaria and even various ciliates, myxosporidia and gregarines.
(6) These results suggest that the specificity of LAC virus-vector interactions is markedly influenced by the efficiency of the fusion function of the G1 envelope glycoprotein operating at the midgut level in the arthropod vector.
(7) Domestic swine were housed in four pens under controlled conditions to document arthropod transmission of vesicular stomatitis virus.
(8) The 12 additional arthropod species recorded from the woodland mice consisted of 1 nidicolous beetle, Leptinus orientamericanus; 1 bot, Cuterebra fontinella; 3 fleas, Ctenophthalmus pseudagyrtes, Orchopeas leucopus and Peromyscopsylla scotti; 1 tick, Dermacentor variabilis; 2 mesostigmatid mites, Androlaelaps fahrenholzi and Ornithonyssus bacoti; 3 chiggers, Comatacarus americanus, Euschoengastia peromysci, and Leptotrombidium peromysci; and 1 undescribed pygmephorid mite of the genus Pygmephorus.
(9) Lyme borreliosis is a protean infection caused by B burgdorferi, a recently recognized arthropod-borne spirochete.
(10) The first is characterized by afferent synapses to the brain with, in the sensory pedicle endings, structures similar to the presynaptic ribbons noted by some authors in photoreceptors of arthropods.
(11) The method is convenient, and could be useful for the study of arthropod neuromuscular junctions in general, since their nerve terminals do not release acetylcholine as a transmitter and cannot be stained by the more commonly used cholinesterase methods.
(12) The arthropod-borne virus (arbovirus) diseases of livestock have worldwide impact.
(13) These include gap junctions with features characteristic of arthropods, which seem to assemble by lateral migration of 13-nm E face intramembranous particles (IMPs), which ultimately cluster to form a large number of mature plaques of varying diameters.
(14) Histopathological examination of skin biopsies demonstrated changes compatible with arthropod hypersensitivity.
(15) Dr Umair A Shah, executive director of the Harris County department of public health, said, “It’s probably not a case of if we get Zika in our native mosquitoes, it’s probably a case of when we get Zika in our native mosquitoes.” Zika is a subtropical virus transmitted by the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, part of a group of diseases known as arboviruses, short for arthropod-borne viruses.
(16) A phylogenetic tree constructed from these sequences shows that the family evolved from a common ancestral gene that came into existence at about the time of arthropod and chordate divergence.
(17) The paper ends with identification keys for both adult and immature stages as well as for arthropod indoor fecal traces.
(18) Presence of organophosphates in arthropod larvae has not been documented previously and the analysis of larvae from decomposing remains may prove a useful technique for detection of these toxicants in decomposing remains.
(19) In arthropods, reflex modulation can occur in the sensory receptors themselves and in neurons that discharge during locomotion.
(20) The inhibition assay for mite allergen was reproducible in the presence of protein concentrations of added plant, fungal, arthropod and animal extracts in excess of the protein concentrations that occur under the operational mite assay conditions.
Myriapod
Definition:
(n.) One of the Myriapoda.
Example Sentences:
(1) The cysticercoids are found up against the outside of the gut of Myriapode, Oxydesmus granulosus, from Porto Novo (Dahomey).
(2) It appears in more variable amounts, in a form of constant but greater mobility in many invertebrates: worms, molluscs (adductor but not gastropod feet), insects, a myriapod, and even in human blood platelets.
(3) Maximum parsimony analyses and monophyly testing within arthropods indicate that myriapods (millipedes and centipedes) form a sister group to all other assemblages, whereas crustaceans (shrimps and lobsters) plus hexapods (insects and allied groups) form a well-supported monophyletic group.
(4) Partial 18S rRNA sequences of five chelicerate arthropods plus a crustacean, myriapod, insect, chordate, echinoderm, annelid, and platyhelminth were compared.
(5) As ceh-13 belongs to the labial class of homeoboxes, we conclude that, at the time when the nematode lineage diverged from the myriapod-insect and the vertebrate lineages, the duplication which led to the Antp and the labial families of homeoboxes had already taken place.
(6) Moreover he makes an attempt to compare his observations with those concerning another group of Myriapods: the Chilopods.
(7) None of the myriapods tested had any bacteriostatic effect on Escherichia coli D-31 whereas the growth of gram-negative E. cloacae was inhibited.
(8) The postgonopodial gland of the myriapod Glomeris marginata (Villers), which produces a pheromone, is an integumentary gland comprising numerous functional secretory units.
(9) Restrictive linker junctions, recently found to be the basis of the interglial barrier in cephalopod CNS, as well as that of myriapods, are characterized by cross-striations or columns which, in combination with charged residues, inherent either in them or in the associated extracellular matrix, slow down the entry of exogenous molecules.
