Due to the morphology, characteristics, and diverse functions, the class  Insecta is the largest group of arthropods and the most abundant group of eukaryotes.

<h3>What do you mean by Arthropods?</h3>

Arthropods may be defined as a phylum of invertebrate animals that have a segmented body and jointed appendages, exoskeleton, and dorsal anterior brain.

Insects are found on the Earth since a very long time. They possess a protective shell of an exoskeleton, and their small size, and ability to fly allowing them to escape from their predators. They easily migrate from one region to the other where sufficient food is available.

Among eukaryotes, they occupy a large proportion because they have sufficient area to live, food to eat, and options for mating.

Therefore, due to the morphology, characteristics, and diverse functions, the class  Insecta is the largest group of arthropods and the most abundant group of eukaryotes.
