What is a "spider"?

A spider is a small arachnid with eight legs and a body divided into two segments: the cephalothorax and the abdomen. It is known for its ability to spin silk webs to catch prey, and many species are venomous. Spiders are found in various habitats worldwide and play a crucial role in controlling insect populations.
