KIDS TRIVIA

Detailed explanation-1: -All insects have six legs, three body segments, antennae, and an exoskeleton. Insects don’t have bones. Instead, they have hard shells called exoskeletons. Like a little suit of armor, an exoskeleton protects the insect’s body and also keeps it from drying out.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mammals, reptiles, birds, fish and amphibians are vertebrates with endoskeletons (skeletons inside their bodies). Their skeletons provide support and protection and help them to move. Insects, spiders and shellfish are some of the invertebrates that have exoskeletons.

Detailed explanation-3: -The word exoskeleton means “outside skeleton.” Many invertebrates, or animals without backbones, have exoskeletons. Insects are the largest group of animals that have an exoskeleton. Insects have exoskeletons made of a substance called chitin.
