I think c. is most correct.
Horseshoe crabs have been found in fossil form in rocks aged about 400-500 million years old, looking the same as today.
Dust mites are arachnids and are not predatory, many other mites are plant sap suckers.
As an aside, asking a subjective question doesn't seem quite right. What is meant by "Most" accurate?

a is the best answer because all arachnids are equipped to kill.

a is the best fit,
You might have to check out d, but I think it is OK.
