How is the exoskeleton on a crayfish an adaptive advantage?
The exoskeleton on the crayfish is an adaptive advantage because it gives the crayfish support and protection. Unlike humans who have an internal skeleton, the exoskeleton protects the crayfish from its predators. In the case of support, the crayfish's ligament and muscles attach to the exoskeleton, which provides a structure for its internal organs and muscles. The internal skeleton, which provides support, does not provide the same protections as an exoskeleton; however, the exoskeleton also has its disadvantages such as molting. When the crayfish molts, it takes all the calcium out of its previous exoskeleton and holds it in two pockets in its head. The crayfish then flexes its posterior and pushes all the blood toward its anterior, cracking the shell. After climbing out, the crayfish is totally vulnerable to predators because it takes a couple days for the new exoskeleton, which has already developed but is thin and weak, to harden. The calcium stored from the old exoskeleton helps the new one harden, but it still takes a while.
