A chitinous exoskeleton is a rigid external covering made primarily of chitin, a tough, flexible polysaccharide. This type of exoskeleton is commonly found in arthropods, such as insects, crustaceans, and arachnids, providing protection and support while allowing for mobility. Chitinous exoskeletons can be periodically shed and renewed through a process called molting, enabling growth in these organisms.
