How do scorpions protect their internal organs?

Scorpions protect their internal organs primarily through their tough exoskeleton, which acts as a hard outer shell providing physical protection from predators and environmental hazards. Additionally, their segmented body structure allows for flexibility while maintaining a strong defense. The exoskeleton also helps prevent water loss, aiding in their survival in arid environments. Furthermore, their ability to curl their tails and use their stingers provides an effective means of defense against threats.
