Having bones is pretty cool. They make our blood, let us hear, and keep us from being just a squishy puddle on the floor. But for every species with bones, there are at least 20 species on Earth with exoskeletons instead. And those exoskeleton animals are incredibly tough and strong. So why don’t WE have our skeletons on the outside? This is the story of bones!

Why do some animals have exoskeletons and some have internal skeletons? This question popped into my head one day and the answer turned out to be more interesting than I could have imagined. Skeletons are amazing. Let me know what you thought of the video! I'm on Twitter & Instagram @DrJoeHanson @okaytobesmart
Oh
@@martin3840 Oh
Learning a ton from your videos. A huge thanks from India. Please keep uploading
Now I wonder what if we had both exoskeletons and internal skeletons
*cough* Ankylosaur and armored dinosaurs.
Evolution: Would you like to have skeleton inside or outside.
Turtles: Yes.
Turtles are hardcore.
They can breathe through their anuses too… I think. Turtles just ticked all the boxes.
Turtles are cool, until a kid turns it on his back.
how bout *Boneless*
There’s actually some turtles that can flip over again by just tugging everything in, and because of the form of their shell and the weight distribution they flip back on their feet. Pretty amazing ^^
"life remained squishy for a while" oh how I wish my biology teacher talked the way u did to me
well your biology teacher is probably the opposite of squishy, if you know what I mean ;)
my biology teacher literally talk like this.. no wonder I love biology
Someone would probably find a way to be offended by it these days and get them sacked
Yep
Yeh, so erotic
The ironic part of the intro is that Strongman competitions do have plane pulling and Thor won the 2016 plane pull event.
I actually recall hearing from my Vertebrate Zoology professor that the exoskeletons of ancient vertebrates may actually have mainly functioned as calcium sinks to allow for calcium use in cellular functions, and it became repurposed for skeletal functions, which is pretty cool.
Also, vertebrates aren't the only animals who turned inside out like this. Keepers of pet birds may recall the cuttlebones sometimes given to them in their cages. Apparently those internal "bones" cuttlefish have are actually the equivalent of the shells of nautilus/ammonites, so cephalopods put their shells on the inside as well. I've even heard of some cephalopod species which use these internal shells as muscle attachments, meaning they actually do have skeletal bones (albeit very few of them), which is pretty neat.
You understand that almost everything inside an animal was repurposed at some point, right? Maybe the genetic code mechanism itself wasn't, but that's close to it.

Hey Mark!
Great seeing you here, keep up your curiosity and the great content you always bring to us.
Mark amazing vid, I felt so heart warmed when I watched the last video
I would love to see what we would look like if by chance there was other alkaline earth metal rather than calcium.
Oh that's actually an incredible question I now need the answer to
That would be interesting. It's a trope in sci-fi that humans build A.I/androids with metal skeletons. Hey, create in thy own image. I don't think we would be as flexible and perhaps more heavier, as hypothesized in the video, 'What You Changed Your Bones To Metal.' Also, the most current development is titanium foam where it's light and structurally perforated to allow blood vessels to develop inside its interiors - like an actual bone. It's still in its infancy stages, but it may help to replace brittle or irrepairable bones in the future. The brand is InnoTERE.
@@Quibblet JOIN THE GLORIOUS EVOLUTION
Actually, that can happen to you, if you ingest strontium(the element below calcium) your body will confuse it for calcium and use it to build the bones, tho it isn't healthy as it has different properties, and your body can't clear it out afterwards, and if it builds up, well you're kinda screwed
Biology was my favorite class in school. The thought of a completely different evolution just makes the mind wander haha. It's a fun thing to think about
Plot twist: humans are actually meat mechas being piloted by an advanced organic A.I. wich weighs roughly 3 pounds....
Isn't that Ultimately just... True? Because it's just one way to look at it/break it down?
More like a robot with great limitations. And everything outside earth is 1000x deadly for us.
True as well, we're literally just a body that is pretty much being controlled by our amazing, complex supercomputers..... aka, our brains 🧠

Exoskeleton:
-Insane strength
-less pain
-sturdy
-difficulty in uprighting oneself upon flipping
-slow
-permanently damaged exo armor
Skeleton
-extra dynamic and fluent mobility
-lighter body
-amplified pain
-squishy externals
-regenerable external armor
-more room for modifications
And better stamina and faster cooling off

Not necessarily so in regards to permanent damage. You'd just have to have new armour plating growing under the old and shed said plates when the new ones are fully developed

I think its better this way, with our brains we can build suits/armor that imitate exoskeletons for multiple purposes. All we're really missing is hybridization with our bodies. To maximize on "hydraulic" performance for the suit. However. It is interesting that the opposite would be 100x harder to achieve, reinforcing bones or adding them into an existing exoskeleton would give little to no benefits.
I wonder if there would be any benefit to having both an exoskeleton and an internal skeleton?

Could a man-sized ant really lift a car? Relative strength decreases with increasing size. Classic scaling issue in biology. The force produced by a tissue is generally proportional to the cross-sectional area of the tissue (pi-r-squared), whereas the mass of the same tissue is proportional to its volume (pi-r-cubed). Basically as you scale up your strength-to-weight ratio gets worse and worse. We'll have to watch an ant fight a tiny man to be sure.
Facts:
-as we scale up our system scale up and our basic force scale up
-there's no strength to weight ratio if your Body and those on it gets Bigger to
-Basically STo'W ratio is used in athletics stuff for gymnastics and bodybuilding
-we used Gravity and force physics for calculating something like building a plane that can withstand certain weight without its engine and its force energy popped out
What is "cross-sectiona area"? And those (pir-r-square / pir-r-cubed stuff) you talking about? Please explain
@@dimaswitanto2994 Suppose that we scaled up an insect by a factor of 100. The legs would have a diameter 100 times that of the original and a cross sectional area 100*100 = 10,000 times the original. But, the volume of the animal's body would be 100*100*100 = one million times the original volume. If the tissue and exoskeleton were exactly of the same composition, and thus density, the larger insect would weigh one million times as much as the original. But, the weight of the body would be supported on legs with only 10,000 times as much cross sectional area, and thus total strength, as the original. The weight supported per square millimeter of cross sectional area would have increased by 100 times. The pressure on each millimeter of cross sectional area would have increased by 100 times, the resulting force would crush the animals legs
@@dimaswitanto2994 even in the video it is mentioned at 5:00
They couldn't even lift their own weight. Internal skeletal is the best. Suck it exoskeleton.
This is so true
Even though the video mentions this topic i think it is super misleading
I think this might have been an editing error, but in what world is 52 twice the amount of 33? I don't know why, but I really got held up on this. I think you were referring to the fact that there's 33 joints in each foot, which would be twice the amount of 33 bones in the spine if you factor in we have two feet. Other than that, cool video.

I think some aliens on other planets around other stars might have exoskeletons as i saw in the movie " district 9" . Awsome movie a few years ago at the theatre. 😊
Hi. I study Biologie in Germany and i wanted to say a few things.
in the part where you discribed the evolution of protostomia and deuterostomia you had a few mistakes. Some were just not completly accurate pictures for the narration. For example you showed a nine-eye which is one of the earliest forms of fish (it isnˋt even folly classified as such because its so old) but is happend way later that what the narration says. Also what a person might think from seeing this video is that protostomia and deuterostomia are classified by the skelleton they have. it is true that you could say something like that and it would mostly be a way of classification. A problem with that are for example worms wich can be found on both branches wich have a hydro-skelleton or things like sqids witch have somewhat of a hard skelleton on the inside (evolutionary it came from the outside as well; their closest relatives are musscles and snails).
Protostomia and deuterostomia are classified a bit different: before is a full human/ant we start from one cell which turns into a few cells which form a ball. this ball then dents somewhere. this dent then breaks through on the other side. we get a cell-donut. the hole of this donut becomes our digestive system. if the dent becomes the mouth we speek of protostomia (first mouth). if the break through becomes the mouth it is a deuterostomia (new mouth).
otherwise i really love your vids

Thing to note: it is not merely a problem of skeleton vs exoskeleton. Insects and smaller/lighter animals can lift so much more than their weight/ jump higher than their height because of how gravity works.
The heavier the mass of an object the more it is « pulled » by gravity.
If we were the same size as ants chances are we’d be able pull objects just the way they do.
Exactly I hate it when education channels scale up small animals abilities without accounting for gravity
That's not how gravity works. Gravity is a characteristic of space and works on everything evenly.
The higher the mass, the higher the energy needed to move it, therefore you need that much more energy to stop something from moving. And this plays into a completely different mechanic: drag.
Drag is the force a medium _(like air)_ exerts against a moving object. Drag depends on the shape of an object, its mass, speed and the density of a medium.
Most insects like ants or beetles are mostly spherical and a sphere creates quite a lot of drag _(sphere has a coefficient of ~0.5 compared to a coefficient of ~0.02 for a tear-like object, think of a wing but top-down symmetric, or ~2.0 for a thin, flat object like a feather),_ so just their shape gives them a lot of drag and then comes their miniscule mass.
This leads to an ant's terminal velocity, i.e. the maximum free-falling speed an object can have, of only ~6.5 km/h. For a human that's about the speed of a slow jog or a power walk.
For comparison a human in a "free fall" position has terminal velocity of ~200 km/h.
And no, we wouldn't be able to lift objects as heavy as ants or other insects, if we were their size. Endo- and exoskeletons perform vastly different depending on the scale. Not to mention chitin "bones" are usually much more flexible than calcium-based ones, so you would be able to lift heavier objects without worrying your bones would break just based on this fact alone.
What 😂😂😂 I don't think you understand have gravity works
The heavier the object is, the more it is pulled by gravity - well, that's exactly why it is heavier. Bigger mass = more pulled by gravity = heavier. And this relation is linear. More mass = more weight, on a linear scale. So if we were the mass of ants, we would still be able to lift the same percentage of our own weight. Gravity has nothing to do with this.
Serious question: if we were able to have an iron man style exoskeleton in the future, would it cause our internal bones to become weak/deteriorate?

Here's an idea for a bones show: why did/do so many mammals have horns and antlers, and why/how are cattle now being bred to not have any?
i didn't know you guys used songs with blues smoke detectors, that is awesome!
I'd be curious To know why arthropods never developed larger brains like vertebrates did. Maybe a future show?
They say smarter brains developed because of diet. Maybe because of vertebrates increase mobility it allowed access do different foods/minerals/vitamins that aided in brain development. 2 ocean dwelling creatures the Dolphin (vertebrate) versus something like a crab (invertebrate). Because of how slow a crab is it can’t really chase a fish, so it instead eats sea floor garbage. But a Dolphin can be fast and catch more nutritious food. Just my thought process tho.
They lived before dinosaurs and are still alive, maybe they will outlive us. Trading brains for survival.
In my opinion its the size issue again, for a bigger brain u need more space and to get that space without being called bighead u need to grow, but their breathing system is less efficient, so they dont grow to that sizes and so their brain also doesnt grow.

I have a question, about a creature having both an endoskeleton and an exoskeleton, could this bring a benefit that either side can't do alone, like if humans had Exo armor like iron man but naturally.
Could have an endoskeleton allow one to more easily protect these when they shed their exoskeleton till the next one grows,
could the endoskeleton allow muscles to grow big enough to decently move exoskeleton human size.
exoskeletons allow humans to survive better against attacks even from some firearms?
Would exoskeleton be perfect for cybernetics enhancement by using natural forming exoskeleton as scaffolding for technology and more?

Yeah, my thoughts exactly, our internal organs and our brain have exoskeletons, while our limbs dont...
So its internal exoskeleton?
Small things benefit from the square-cube law: We could lift much more relative to our weight if we were scaled down to bug size. Muscle strength is proportional to the muscle's cross-sectional area, a square, while weight is proportional to volume, a cube. So scaling every dimension down by a factor of 2 makes the strength a quarter as much, but the weight an eighth as much, so the power-to-weight ratio doubles. This is why gymnasts tend to be small people and why little kids seem so energetic. :-)
Finally someone whos not all like "wow ants strong woooww".
Was informative thanks alot
Stephen Brackin ya its really simple math, and honestly i dont think exoskeletons would have mattered, even if we didnt have them if we were small we could still be strong many times our weight
ants aren't impressive... i can lift bread crumbs too
@@slendydie1267 lol
@@slendydie1267 dude i can lift the WHOLE LOAF. id like to see an ant do that
I got a yoga ad before watching this. How hilarious
We have both. Have you thought about the skull and ribcage?
No one:
Me: imagining what humans would look like if they had exoskeletons...
Imagine a fat skeleton
That's it
Armor titan?
I imagine something similar to medieval plate armor. Able to maintain similar range of motion that we already have.
We've invented our own exoskeletons(armor), much better than the natural ones.
Excellent video and, as always, superbly narrated Joe. You always present thought provoking and intriguing topics. Well done.
Very informative..
Some theories say, we have bones to store minerals since we were fish. And if we cannot get those minerals, our body takes them from our bones. Stability and muscle attachment came later.
