Which is the main component of the exoskeleton of arthropods?
Crayfish, unlike earthworms, do not have a hydrostatic skeleton. Instead, crayfish have a rigid exoskeleton. Give 2 advantages to the having the exoskeleton and 2 disadvantages.
Compare and contrast the uses of hydrostatic skeletons and viscoelastic skeletons in Phylum Cnidaria. Describe the characteristics of the two skeletal types, difference in musculature needed for each type, and how they are used in the two main body types (polyp and medusa).

How do they do this? a. Their bones are filled with water, which provides the weight of the skeleton. b. The change in body structure is caused by contraction of muscles compressing the watery body fluid. c. The muscles contain water vacuoles, which, when filled, provide a rigid internal structure. d.
