ecdysis

The young go through three ecdysis over the course of several years before reaching adulthood.

The life cycle consists of 10 stages, with ecdysis in between.

This process of molting is called ecdysis and gives the group its name.

In an incomplete metamorphosis it comes after the last ecdysis.

Ecdysis occurs at least once during the active season.

The lady crab ecdysis as it grows, like most arthropods.

Growth is accomplished by periodic shedding of the exoskeleton (ecdysis).

A spider with a small abdomen may be undernourished but more probably has recently undergone ecdysis.

Both groups also share a common skin-shedding mechanism (ecdysis) and molecular biological similarities.

Sensitivity to drought varies from species to species and increases during ecdysis.

It follows the final ecdysis of the immature instars.

The caterpillar then undergoes ecdysis, or molts from that position leaving the old exoskeleton behind.

Ultimately the activation cascade causes physiological changes that result in ecdysis (moulting).

It undergoes ecdysis, or molting, several times, growing more phyllopods each time.

These compounds are mimics of hormones used by arthropods in the molting process known as ecdysis.

This process is called ecdysis.

"Ecdysis" is a zoological term meaning the shedding of an outer layer of skin.

The group is also supported by morphological characters, and includes all animals that shed their exoskeleton (see ecdysis).

Moulting is known as ecdysis.

Note that despite being internal, the tracheae of arthropods are shed during moulting (ecdysis).

A less common word for the process is ecdysis (ek'dih-sis; "get out" G).

Moulting of the skin (ecdysis) takes place regularly, sometimes every 14 days, induced by the hormone ecdysone.

Their function was to assist the trilobite in shedding its old exoskeleton during ecdysis (or molting).

The shedding of scales is called ecdysis, or, in normal usage moulting or sloughing.

Ecdysis can mean either:
