The word that refers to the shedding of old skin is "ecdysis." This term is commonly used in zoology to describe the process by which reptiles, insects, and other arthropods discard their old exoskeletons or skin to allow for growth or to escape parasites. Ecdysis is a vital part of the life cycle for many species.

Skin is is the flexible continuous covering of human or other animal boby.
Molting in the context of a dying human being is not a scientifically recognized term; however, it can metaphorically describe the shedding of old, dying cells or tissues as the body deteriorates. This process may resemble the way some animals shed their skin or exoskeletons. In humans, this can manifest as changes in the skin, such as peeling or flaking, as the body approaches death. It's important to note that this is not a typical or formal biological process in humans.

The common name is shedding, or sloughing. The technical term is ecdysis. Basically, when a snake 'outgrows' its skin, it secretes a fluid (mainly composed of vitamin A) between the current layer, and a new layer of skin underneath. This is what turns the snakes eyes a milky blue-white. After a few days, the snake breaks the skin (usually at the mouth) and crawls out of it - turning the skin inside-out in the process.
The scientific term for a wart is "verruca," which is a benign growth caused by infection with human papillomavirus (HPV) in the top layer of the skin.
