What is the difference between hydrostatic skeletons endoskeletons and exoskeletons?
An endoskeleton is internal and grows with the body; An exoskeleton is external and requires shedding when the body grows too big for it; A hydrostatic skeleton is comprised of liquid keeping the body's shape.
What are the differences between a liquid skeleton and a vertebrate skeleton?
deference between liquid and vertebrate skeleton
What liquid did liquid skeleton have?
water
Can a liquid dry line paper roller be mistaken for a tapeworm?
Only if you don't have any common sense?
What animal has a liquid skeleton?
I think animals with a liquid skeletons include worms. slugs, jellyfish. Alex 8
How would the body be different without the skeleton system?
You would look like a space-hopper filled with liquid.
Worms and slugs do not have skeletons how do they keep their shape?
They have what is known as a liquid skeleton, this means that is uses liqid to push it like a worm. I hope this helped ;)
Why do arthropods need a hard exoskeleton?
Firstly, any sizeable organism be it Arthropod or otherwise would need some kind of infrastructure if it's important to that organism to maintain a consistent general body plan or morphology. Not all organisms require this; for example there are amorphous organisms like the amoeba or certain fungi; some slime molds can grow to a significant size and survive quite well with a highly generalized and nonspecific shape. In the case of those with a high degree of motility, some consistency in shape is useful. Even jellyfish with no significant skeleton, have sufficient rigidity for mobility. The important thing is, the degree of infrastructure is consistent with the habitat and behaviors to which it's adapted. In the case of arthropods, an exoskeleton is very convenient and an endoskeleton would be redundant; for vertebrates, an endoskeleton serves this role and an exoskeleton would prove cumbersome. To be sure, some vertebrates evidence similar adaptations for which an arthropod uses an exoskeleton, for example, the plating on an armadillo, the shell on a tortoise, the thick skin on large mammals, etc; yet for their mass, the thickness of an exoskeleton to provide the necessary rigidity for the purpose of the body plan in vertebrates would be impractical. The reverse can be said to be true of some arthropods; since some have muscles which anchor not to the exoskeleton but to internal cartilaginous structures which are arguably somewhat endoskeletal. One might say, the laws of physics, particularly mass and gravity, dictate the usefulness of an exoskeleton to Arthropods given their size, role, and adaptations; the hardness of it reflecting the requirements placed upon the organism for its functionality and thus, its survival.
Does a earthworm have a hard skeleton?
No, worms by definition do not have skeletons. Some have coelom, a cavity in the body that supports certain higher movement functions.
What state is a praying mantis?
If you mean state as in sloid liquid and gaseous then I should say a combination of all 3! Solid for exoskeleton and muscles, liquid for fluids and gas for, well gasses. Over all I would say solid though as the liquids and gasses are contained inside. Hope this helped at all.
What is the skeleton equation for potassium metal reacts with liquid water yielding aqueous potassium hydroxide plus hydrogen gas?
The reaction is:2 K + 2 H2O = 2 KOH + H2
What metal is used in terminator robot?
The T-101(800) endo-skeleton metal is not identified.The T-1000 and T1001 are composed of a nanomorph mimetic poly-alloy or "liquid metal."The T-X is a composite of both the T-101(800) and T-100/1001 series machines, with a metal endo-skeleton and a liquid metal skin.The Universal Studios T2-3d: Battle Across Time Terminators, T-70 and T-1000000 play off the previously mentioned models.
