Sarah C asked:

Could an exoskeleton (or “wearable robot”) make you run faster? How fast? 30mph? 60mph? What are the limitations of human running speed?

John asked:

My crayfish shed its exoskeleton. How do I preserve it for a day so I can take it to my sister’s class to show them. Do I keep it in water or let it dry out?

Me, Myself, and I asked:

In terms of both numbers of species and numbers of individuals, insects are the most successful land animals on Earth. Write a full paragraph explaining how their exoskeletons help them live on land. Are there any disadvantages to having an exoskeleton?

Thanks.
