Oh, dude, no way! Insects don't have backbones, they have exoskeletons. It's like they're wearing their skeleton on the outside, which is pretty wild if you ask me. So yeah, insects are all about that exoskeleton life, no backbones needed.

No, insects do not have backbones. Insects belong to a group of animals called invertebrates, which means they do not have a backbone or spine. Instead, they have an exoskeleton for protection and support.

No, insects do not have backbones. Insects belong to a group of invertebrates called arthropods, which also includes Spiders, crustaceans, and millipedes. Arthropods have an exoskeleton made of chitin that provides support and protection, in place of an internal backbone like vertebrates have. This exoskeleton allows insects to have a wide range of movements and adaptations for survival.

No insects have backbones; they are invertebrates. Instead of an internal support (skeleton) they have an outer support called an exoskeleton. The exoskeleton of all insects is made of a tough, hard substance called chitin.
