The internal skeleton is referred to as an "endoskeleton." This structural framework is composed of bones or cartilage and provides support, protection for internal organs, and facilitates movement in vertebrates. Endoskeletons enable growth and adaptation, allowing organisms to achieve larger sizes compared to those with external skeletons, or exoskeletons.
