Question

What is the benefit of an arthropod’s exoskeleton.

Question 5 options:

A. It allows arthropods to breathe.


B. It protects and supports the arthropod’s body.


C. It allows the arthropod to get food.


D. It allows the arthropod to see far distances.

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Beyond support, the exoskeleton provides protection against predators and strength against prey. And it protects arthropods from the environment, for example, keeping ocean-dwellers from being affected by small changes in saltiness and preventing land-dwellers from drying out.
