Worms do not need a skeleton as, unlike many animals of the same build, they interact with the environment differently. Worms have no need for a skeleton as they mostlly live in the earth. Therefore through everlution have lost the chemical, Phyniside, that "orders" the new cells of the organism to "become" part of the skeleton.

Why do creatures need water skeleton?

Creatures need a water skeleton, or hydrostatic skeleton, as it provides structural support and maintains shape without the rigidity of a hard skeleton.

It also plays a crucial role in locomotion and helps protect internal organs. Overall, a water skeleton is essential for survival in various aquatic environments.
