Support Systems in Animals
Support system in humans and animals is called SKELETON or SKELETAL SYSTEM
3 types of
skeletal systems
ENDOSKELETON
HYDROSTATIC SKELETONEXOSKELETON

ENDOSKELETON
• Inner Frame• Refers to
bones or cartilage that is inside the body of vertebrates.
EXOSKELETON
• Outer Frame• Consists of
one layer of hard skin derived from substances like calcium carbonate
HYDROSTATTIC SKELETON
• Formed from fluid pressure in space that is enveloped by a muscular system.

Endoskeleton in humans consists of
206 bones
Backbone mainly supported by Pelvic
Girdle
Pelvic Girdle : strongest bone in human body

Entire weight is supported by its endoskeleton.
Skeletal system : bigger and stronger than that of the aquatic animal vertebrate system.
Big land animals : Strong and big Pectoral and Pelvic Girdles to support their body weight
Four-legged animals : Backbone either curve upwards or downwards. Enables backbone to withstand any heavy load acting on the animal.

Birds : Have hollow bones and air spaces inside so that the body is lighter.Advantages of hollow bones :LighterRequires less calcium and phosphorous for its
formation.
Support System of Land Vertebrate Animals
![Page 13: support system in animals and plants](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013110/547319f8b4af9fcb458b4689/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Examples : Whales, dolphins
Smaller and lighter endoskeleton than land vertebrates.
Pectoral and pelvic support that is smaller and lighter.
Most of body weight is supported by buoyancy of the water.
Support System of Aquatic Vertebrate Animals
![Page 14: support system in animals and plants](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013110/547319f8b4af9fcb458b4689/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
The buoyancy of the water allows the size of the aquatic vertebrate animals to be bigger that land vertebrate animals.

SUPPORT SYSTEM FOR INVERTEBRATES
Invertebrates are animals that do not have a backbone.
Its body is supported by :External skeletal system
(exoskeleton)
Body fluids (hydrostatic skeletons)
![Page 18: support system in animals and plants](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013110/547319f8b4af9fcb458b4689/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
EXOSKELETON OF INVERTEBRATES
Exoskeleton consists of a layer of hard skin or shell.
Examples of invertebrates with hard outer skin : Crabs, spiders, prawns and
scorpions.
Examples of invertebrates with hard shell : Snails, mussels
![Page 19: support system in animals and plants](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013110/547319f8b4af9fcb458b4689/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
EXOSKELETON OF INVERTEBRATES
For insects, the exoskeleton is called cuticle.
Cuticle is made of chitin (hard and impermeable to water)
Cuticle prevent the insects from growing.
![Page 20: support system in animals and plants](https://reader031.vdocuments.mx/reader031/viewer/2022013110/547319f8b4af9fcb458b4689/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
HYDROSTATIC SKELETONS OF INVERTEBRATES
Leeches, worms and octopus do not have exoskeleton. Their bodies are soft.
Use the body fluid (also known as hydrostatic skeleton system) as support system.
The body fluids exert a pressure on their body walls to form a hydrostatic skeleton.

SUPPORT SYSTEM IN LAND PLANTS
• Woody PlantsExamples: rubber tree, durian tree, rambutan tree, and teak tree.Supported by woody tissues.Woody tissues – dense, hard on
tree trunk. - made up of xylem
tissues. Most of the woody plants are tall.

• BUTTRESS ROOTSExamples: durian trees, casuarina trees, and yellow flame trees.Occurs at the base of the trunk where the main roots branch off at the ground surface and enter the soil.
