esqueleto

Also known as skeletal system, bones

A skeleton is the structural frame that supports the body of most animals. There are several types of skeletons, including the exoskeleton, which is a rigid outer shell that holds up an organism's shape; the endoskeleton, a rigid internal frame to which the organs and soft tissues attach; and the hydroskeleton, a flexible internal structure supported by the hydrostatic pressure of body fluids.

AI overview

A skeleton is the structural frame that supports an animal's body, and different animals have different types depending on their needs. The three main types are the exoskeleton (a rigid outer shell), the endoskeleton (a rigid internal frame inside the body), and the hydroskeleton (a flexible structure supported by fluid pressure).

Esqueleto é um nome genérico dado a estruturas de sustentação, principalmente de seres vivos, podendo ser usado também em outras áreas, como engenharia e construção. Há três principais tipos de esqueletos de seres vivos: * Exoesqueleto ou esqueleto externo - presente em artrópodes, como formigas, aranhas, e caranguejos, e em alguns outros invertebrados, como as conchas de alguns moluscos. Seu principal componente é a quitina, um polissacarídeo associado a outros grupos amino. * Endoesqueleto ou esqueleto interno - presente por exemplo em vertebrados, como peixes, gatos e humanos. Exemplo: esqueleto humano. Os esqueletos internos são formados por ossos, sendo estes órgãos compostos predominantemente por tecido ósseo verdadeiro e, em menor proporção, por outros tipos de tecidos * Hidroesqueleto ou esqueleto hidrostático - consiste em cavidades preenchidas por fluidos, presente em equinodermos como estrela-do-mar, anelídeos como a minhoca e nematóides, entre outros invertebrados.
