The exoskeleton of an insect is its protection against predators. An insect that has a hard exoskeleton, or shell is not going to be eaten by a bigger bug. It also protects the insect from rain and the sun.
Yes, corals are composed of an exoskeleton
The bodies of arthropods are supported by a hardened exoskeleton made of chitin, a substance produced by many non-arthropods as well. In arthropods, the nonliving exoskeleton is like a form-fitting suit of armor.
The antonym of exoskeleton is endoskeleton. An endoskeleton is an internal skeleton found in vertebrates, whereas an exoskeleton is an external skeleton found in arthropods and some other invertebrates.
These animals belong to a group called arthropods. Arthropods have jointed legs and an exoskeleton for support and protection, but they lack a backbone. This group includes insects, spiders, scorpions, and crustaceans like crabs and lobsters.
Exoskeleton.
No.
no
well in a way.....an oyster is a shellfish so i guess it is
poo
athropod
No, earthworms are Annelids.
nothing absulutly nothingggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggg
A verterbrate animal has a bone on the outside like a spine.. but im guessing an athropod has an inside one? :D
the uropod is an abdomenal limb of an athropod
Molting limits an arthropod's size because the process involves shedding the exoskeleton to allow for growth, which temporarily leaves the animal vulnerable. During molting, the arthropod must expand its body before the new exoskeleton hardens, making it susceptible to predation and environmental hazards. Additionally, the need to produce a new, larger exoskeleton imposes physical constraints on growth, as the structure must be strong enough to support the organism. Consequently, these factors can restrict the maximum size that arthropods can achieve.
they have exoskeleton
Yes; many cnidarians have an exoskeleton.
