Exoskeletons are mainly chitin, a carbohydrate.
An exoskeleton of chitin a horny protein material.
Skin, hair, and nails are made of keratin, a protein. Silk is a protein, too. Chitin, the material of the lobsters' and insects' exoskeleton, is a polysaccharide similar to starch.
exoskeleton
Redundant protein is a term used in bodybuilding where the person takes so much protein, some of it can't be used by the body. Non-redundant protein refers to the protein which is actually used and absorbed by the body. This term is also used when referring to enzyme biology for when the substrate is protein.

I think an ant has a exoskeleton.

Arthropod have exoskeleton. The exoskeleton is composed of a thin, outer protein layer, the epicuticle, and a thick, inner, chitin–protein layer.
The protein is called Chitin.
The exoskeleton of a lobser is more commonly called the shell. It is made of a protein called chitin.
The muscle tissue is protein, the exoskeleton is protein, they spin webs of protein, come to think of it it's all protein!
An exoskeleton of chitin a horny protein material.
Arthropods have exoskeletons made of chitin. However, chitin is not a protein. It is actually a derivative of glucose, which is a carbohydrate.
that shell is called the exoskeleton,And the exoskeleton is a shell made out of chitin.The hard exoskeleton of a lobster is known as the chitin.
Chitin, a protein similar to keratin which is what that fingernail you have lodged in your nostril is made of.
The physical (structural) support of arthropods is provided by their exoskeleton, which is a defining characteristic of the Arthropoda phylum. The exoskeleton has significant amounts of a tough protein, chitin.
Yes. Arthropods are characterized by an exoskeleton made mostly from the tough protein chitin, also joint appendages and segmented bodies.
Chitin has two notably good qualities as an exoskeleton. Since it is a type of protein, it is relatively easy for arthropods to make. And it is quite tough. Its properties are similar to the protein keratin, which is used by mammals for making hair, nails, and horns.
