Endoskeleton - their bones are inside their body
Crabs have no inner skeleton like humans do so the shell is its skeleton but on the outside of its body. The shell protects the crab from injury.

An inchworm does not have a skeleton like humans do. Instead, it has a soft, flexible body that allows it to move easily and stretch out as it crawls.
A human skeleton is internal and made up of bones, providing structure and support to the body. Insects have an exoskeleton, which is a hard outer shell that covers their body for support and protection. Insects molt their exoskeleton to grow, while humans do not.
You humans!
You find them throughout the body in adults but more are soft cartilage in babies.
The shield covering a tortoise's body is called a carapace. (Yup and the Carapace is actually part of the tortoise's skeleton)
Endoskeleton is the internal skeleton, which is what most people refer to when they just say skeleton. The exoskeleton, on the other hand, is an external skeleton which has protective features, eg crustaceans hard shell.
An exoskeleton is an external skeleton that supports and protects an animal's body, in contrast to the internal endoskeleton which humans and other mammals have
An indoskeleton is an internal skeleton found in some organisms, such as mollusks and arthropods. It provides support and protection for the body, as well as serving as an anchor for muscles to allow movement. Unlike exoskeletons, which are external skeletons, indoskeletons are located inside the body.
