Do arthropods have jointed legs

All legged arthropods have joints. Since arthropods have rigid exoskeletons, some degree of articulation or jointing would be essential else locomotion would be impossible. To provide the degrees of freedom necessary for effective locomotion, multiple joints per leg are necessary. The strategy varies somewhat from species to species in terms of the type and number of joints and length of each segment depending on the degrees of freedom required for each particular organism.
