The cephalothorax includes the head chest, and palps. The palps are a scorpion's pinchers. Scorpions have eight legs, two palps, one stinger, and the eyes depend on species. Scorpions come all different sizes. They mostly range from one to eight inches long.
Scientists believe that scorpions used to be more than tree feet long.
A museum used to have a tree foot model of a scorpion based on a fossil that is thought to be a scorpion. Some scorpion stings only hurt like a bee sting. Others hurt like a poisonous snakebite. Children get affected more than adults because they weigh less. The signs of a scorpion bite are pain, swelling, and spot color changing.
