insects have an outer skeleton which is much more effective than our internal one there by reducing the amount of energy needed to mobilize it

How can a snake choke you so tight?

The snakes that are big enough to squeeze you or animal is called a constrictor. The main example are boa constrictors and anacondas. Their bodies can grow to the size of a man's waist, and are mostly tough, strong muscle. So when one of these snakes wraps around you and flexes its considerable muscles (like people showing off their muscles) the muscles get larger. The larger muscle cannot go inside the snake, so it goes outside the snake. This larger muscle goes into your body (or an animals body), instead. Your body cannot go anywhere to make room for the snakes' larger muscles, so it simply gets squashed, and you cannot breathe in any fresh air.


How is a insect's exoskeleton similar to a humans skeleton?

Exoskeletons and Endoskeletons both protect the animal. Both are a place for the animal's muscles to attach. This lets the animal move its body. Both types of skeletons are useful for supporting the body and holding it off the ground. An exoskeleton cannot grow, and must be shed each time the animal gets larger. An endoskeleton can grow, and animals with internal skeletons do not have to shed anything.
