Exfoliation is the process of shedding skin. Exfoliating helps take off the tops layer of skin. This can help the skin to appear healthier and absorb moisture better.
it is when a snake grows and the top layer of skin comes off and a new better fitting skin appears and makes the snake more comfortable.

As snakes grow the skin doesn't grow with them, so they shed the skin because it no longer "fits" them. By shedding the skin they can get larger, and grow.
ALL snakes (and lizards) shed their skin periodically. The general rule is - the younger the reptile - the more frequently they shed. Reptile skin is regenerated all at once - not in tiny flakes like human skin. Thus they have to shed their skin in order to grow.
No. Most snakes do not. Most will shed their skin on the ground.
blue tongue lizards shed their skin because their scales don't grow so as they grow if they didn't shed skin their skin would just tear.
