Why are a similar number of genes required to make a worm and a human?

Both worms and humans share a common ancestor, and many essential genes have been conserved throughout evolution to carry out basic biological functions. Despite the differences in complexity and morphology between worms and humans, many genes are required for common processes such as development, metabolism, and cellular functions. Therefore, a similar number of genes are necessary to ensure the survival and function of both organisms.

What is an external skeleton and an internal 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.
