"Exo" means external or outer in the word exoskeletons. Exoskeletons are rigid external coverings found in certain animal species that provide support and protection.
"Exo" is NOT a suffix, but it is a prefix. The prefix "exo" indicates outside. The word "exoskeleton" indicates a creature with a skeleton on the outside of the body.
Exo means outward or outer or towards out. While endo means inside or to inside
The opposite of an exoskeleton (outer shell-like support structure eg insects, arachnids) is an endoskeleton (inner structure, such as mammals and reptiles have.)
Some examples of living things that do not have a skeleton include jellyfish, worms, octopuses, and insects. These animals have other structural support systems in place of a skeleton, such as exoskeletons or hydrostatic skeletons.
Exo- means outer, and Endo- means inner. So an exoskeleton means that the "framework" of the creature is on the outside, like the lobster. An endoskeleton is inside the creature, so the soft parts are outside, like the bear or man. Endo means "inside", exo means "outside", and a skeleton is a structure that provides a rigid structure for the body. So, humans have endoskeletons (our rigid bones are inside our body), while crabs and lobsters have exoskeletons (their rigid shells are outside their body). It's simply a matter of where your support structure is - inside(end) or outside(exo).
no they have no exo or inner skeleton
It is a Greek word meaning Outside, as in exothermal
Yes. Bumblebees have exoskeletons as do all arthropods.
No because creatures with exo-skeletons do not have a vertebrae. So they are invertebrates. :)
Darkling Beetles have exoskeletons, just all ALL insects.
It would be called the endoskeleton. Exo means outside the body...dogs don't have a skeleton on the outside...
Humans and fish have endo skeletons and grasshoppers have exoskeletons (thats why you hear a crack if they are stepped on).
if u mean skeleton then exo
