Chitin is the polysaccharide that is found in the exoskeleton of crabs, lobsters and insects. It is a derivative of glucose and is comparable to the polysaccharide cellulose.
Crabs, bees, ants, spiders, millipedes. turtles, tortoises, and lobsters all have exoskeletons.
An exoskeleton is a hard external covering that provides support and protection for the body of some animals, such as insects and crustaceans. It is made of a tough material like chitin and serves as a shell-like structure that covers the animal's body.
An exoskeleton is a rigid external covering that supports and protects the body of certain animals, such as insects and crustaceans. It provides structure, support, and protection for the organism's soft tissues and helps with movement.
Birds and reptiles both do. Some insects and arachnids molt. Birds molt feathers from time to time. Reptiles molt their top layer of skin. Animals with exoskeletens, such as hermit crabs, also molt.
Arthropods include insects (such as ants, bees, and butterflies), arachnids (such as spiders and scorpions), crustaceans (such as crabs and shrimp), and myriapods (such as centipedes and millipedes). They are characterized by their jointed legs, segmented bodies, and hard exoskeleton.
Chitin is the polysaccharide that gives the insect's exoskeleton the resistance to bending resulting in breaking or cracking. It is also a prime compound and component found in the shells lobsters, crabs, and other shellfish.
Lobsters and crabs
There are many different examples of insects and animals with an exoskeleton. Like ants, bees, and snails.
Crabs, lobsters, beetles, ants.
Organisms such as insects, crustaceans (e.g. crabs, lobsters), and arachnids (e.g. spiders, scorpions) have an exoskeleton. This external skeleton provides support and protection for their bodies.
Lobsters are crustaceans, and chitin is the hard polysaccharide substance that makes up the outer shell (exoskeleton) of crustaceans. Chitin also makes up the exoskeletons of other arthropods (insects, etc.). It helps to strengthen the cell walls of fungi and the shells of mollusks as well.
Yes they are.
Chitin, a polysaccharide made of N-acetylglucosamine molecules. It makes up the exoskeletons of all arthropods, including insects; arachnids, such as Spiders and ticks; and crustaceans, such as crabs, lobsters, crayfish, and shrimp.
I think you mean arthropods? An arthropod is an invertebrate that has an exoskeleton (a skeleton on the outside), joined appendages, and a segmented body. Many examples are horseshoe crabs (which aren't actually crabs at all - they are most related to spiders), lobsters, and crabs, spiders, and other insects.
Some animals that have pincers are lobsters, crabs, and earwig. There are also insects called pincer bugs that have pincers.

Arthropods are animals or insects with a hard exoskeleton and segmented bodies. Crustaceans such as shrimp, crabs and lobsters are classified as arthropods, and are eaten in most countries throughout the world.
