Molting

Real World Example

Imagine having a favorite pair of shoes that, over time, become too small or worn out, but you have to replace them to keep moving comfortably. This is similar to the process of molting, where animals shed their old exoskeleton, skin, or feathers to grow and adapt. Just as you need new shoes to fit your growing feet or to maintain your comfort, animals must shed their old outer layers to allow for growth and the maintenance of their body’s health, ensuring they can continue to thrive in their environment.
