You are confronted with two creatures that, on first glance, both appear to be pill bugs. Upon closer examination, however, you note a difference that allows you to identify one specimen as a pill bug (an isopod crustacean) and the other as a pill millipede (a myriapod). That key characteristic is... A. The presence of an exoskeleton B. The presence of mandibles C. The presence of antennae D. The presence of branched appendages E. None of the characteristics listed above would allow an isopod crustacean to be distinguished from a myriapod
