Crayfish are members of the phylum Arthropoda (commonly called arthropods) and the class Crustacea. Because of their very specialized appendages, crayfish are the perfect specimens to convey to students the relationship between structure, function, and the environment. Dissection of crayfish can be done with scissors, making them perfect for an introductory dissection experience. During this engaging, hands-on activity, students learn about:
- Basic crustacean anatomy
