This growing hermit crab is feeling cramped. He has outgrown his borrowed shell home and is looking for a new home. When he finds an empty shell, he uses his claws to check out the size. If the size is right, he cleans the shell carefully and quickly pulls his abdomen out of the old shell and sticks it into the new one! Standards Link: Life Science: Students know animals inhabit different kinds of environments. ermit crabs are different from true crabs in one important way. True crabs have a short abdomen that is folded up under the large shell on its back. A hermit crab has a long abdomen that sticks out at the rear end of its body. Because its abdomen does not have a hard covering, it must borrow a shell to protect this part of its body. The abdomen’s curled shape fits inside the spiral of a shell. Draw a line from each body part to its description. Abdomen Antennae, used to feel, smell and taste things.

A hermit crab has a hard outer covering called an exoskeleton. This hard covering doesn’t grow like human skin. Instead, it must be shed when a new, larger exoskeleton is ready. The new exoskeleton is soft at first, and the hermit crab must stay in its shell until it hardens. Which picture goes with each sentence telling about how a hermit crab grows? 1. Mother hermit crab carries eggs inside shell. 2. Mother hermit crab releases eggs that are ready to hatch into the ocean.
