Animals with external skeletons and jointed bodies and limbs are primarily found in the phylum Arthropoda. This diverse group includes insects, arachnids, crustaceans, and myriapods, all characterized by their exoskeleton made of chitin and segmented bodies. Their jointed appendages allow for a wide range of movement and adaptability in various environments.
Arthropods are defined to be invertebrates that have an exoskeleton ( an external skeleton).
Skeletons:All animals, including humans have skeletons. Humans have an internal skeleton. This means that our bones is on the inside of us. When an animal has an external skeleton it means that their skeleton is on the outside. These animals who have an external skeleton have what we commonly call shells. These shells are their skeleton which keeps their insides together. If you think of one of those big crabs and how there is a shell on the outside of them (not sea shells) this is their skeleton which is an external skeleton.
No, we have our bones inside our bodies.
The term "soft bodies" refer to animals with no skeleton.
They are know as invertebrates; Sharks whose bodies are supported by cartilage, Stingrays, same deal, Slugs I don't know how their bodies are supported, and many other animals
Everything but bugs
The human skeleton is internal, providing support and protection for the body's organs and giving our bodies shape and structure.
An exoskeleton.
Insects are arthropods, as are spiders, lobsters, and trilobites.Arthropods are animals that have an exoskeleton, jointed legs, and segmented bodies.
What you are describing is phylum Arthropoda, which houses insects, arachnids, crustaceans, and the extinct trilobites.
Arthropod is from Modern Latin for 'jointed feet'. The creatures so-named are also distinguished by jointed legs, segmented bodies, and exoskeletons made of chitin.
As with all arthropods, it has an exoskelton.
