What else can I help you with?
What material are endoskeltons made of?
Chitin
What material makes an exoskeleton?
Chitin.
What are the Tough material found in the cell walls of all fungi?
The cell walls of fungi are composed of a tough substance called chitin
How is chitin formed in your body?
In my body? Humans do not produce any chitin at all, though it has been used as a material for making surgical sutures.
What material is the outer covering in a spider's body?
It is made of chitin-for sure!
True or false a person nails are made of chitin?
False keratin forms hair and nails Chitin is the material of an ant's exoskeleton
What is the role of chitin in medical science?
In Medical Science, chitin can be used as a surgical thread. Chitin is a strong and flexible material. It also degrades slowly as the wound heals. Some believe that it actually stimulates faster healing in humans.
What is difference between the exoskeleton of an insect and chitin?
its the same between an apple and a banana...they just don't compare
what is chitin material?
Biomaterials can be classified into two main groups: synthetic and natural biomaterials
What is the sources of the chitin?
Invertebrates and lower plants are the natural source of chitin. Invertebrate likes crustaceans and mollusks are the attractive sources of Chitin like prawns, crabs and squids. Similarly, the wastes of marine food processing plants are also alternative source of industrial Chitin. It is the second most abundant material on earth after cellulose.
What material are insect wings made of?
Insect wings are typically made of thin layers of chitin proteins covered by a thin membrane. Chitin is a lightweight and flexible material that provides the structure and support needed for flight. The membrane allows for efficient airflow over the wings during flight.
Which organisms uses chitin for structure and support?
Organisms such as arthropods (insects, crustaceans), mollusks (like squid and octopus), and fungi use chitin for structure and support. Chitin is a strong, flexible material that forms the exoskeleton of arthropods and the cell walls of fungi, providing protection and structural integrity.
