- Describe the organizational features of the simplest animalsarrow_forward4) Animals that undergo ecdysis, or molting, include nematodes and arthropods. Why do these animals molt? Group of answer choices shedding the exoskeleton allows the animal to move faster to escape predators the exoskeleton prevents them from obtaining oxygen their outer covering is made of a non-living substance shedding the exoskeleton makes the animal smaller, which makes it easier for the animal to hide from predators in crevicesarrow_forwardFish Body Shape Click on the question mark to change it to a check for the statements that are TRUE and to a blank box for statements that are NOT TRUE about fish body shapes. Porcupine fish and seahorses are slow swimmers. Laterally or dorsoventrally flattened bodies are good for bottom-dwellers. The scientific study of fish is called entomology. Irregular body shapes can be useful for camouflage. The scientific study of fish is called ichthyology.arrow_forward
