Invert Skeletal Systems
2
Types of Skeletal Systems
Changes in movement occur because muscles pull/push against a support structure, called the skeletal system >Endoskeletons >Exoskeletons >Hydrostatic skeletons
3
Endoskeleton
4
Invert w/Endoskeletons (?)
-Echinoderms have calcite skeletons, that have calcium carbonate
5
Exoskeleton [Will cover in detail much later]

Exoskeleton (nice ride!)

Chaetae get lifted in regions of circular muscle contraction.
Hydrostatic Skeletons Chaetae get lifted in regions of circular muscle contraction. During longitudinal muscles contraction, chaetae anchor into the ground

Longitudinal muscle contractions allow for:
Bending Undulating Shortening / retraction of posterior end Peristalsis Coordinated / alternating contractions of circular and longitudinal muscles Useful for forward propulsion and burrowing
