Many animals have no bones; instead they wear their skeleton on the outside, where it also serves as armor. So why do humans have their bones on the inside, leaving their soft flesh exposed and unprotected? Exoskeletons, or outer skeletons, are great for small animals, like insects. But on larger animals, heavy armor makes it hard to move. One evolutionary solution is to replace big, heavy plates of armor with small, flexible plates or scales.
