| | Cuticle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Cutin, as a structural component of the cuticle, is covered with cuticular and epicuticular waxes, a mixture of hydrophobic materials containing C26 to C36 aliphatic compounds. | | | In botany the cuticle is the waxy covering produced by the epidermal cells of leaves to protect the plant from excessive water loss. | | | The cuticle is thicker in plants living in dry climates than in those from wet climates, and tends to be thicker on the top of the leaf. |

| | The insect cuticle is essentially chitin, a polysaccharide. | | | The new cuticle is soft and the insect expands it by swallowing more air or water. | | | For rigidity, the cuticle is modified by sclerotization (also called hardening or tanning). |

| | Cuticle and Molting |
| | The cuticle, acting as an exoskeleton, provides structure to the insect form. | | | Protection from the outside is always necessary and nature provides at least some safety by reducing the amount of time that the soft-bodied insect is exposed. | | | Keep in mind that the upper boundary shown here is in contact with the outside world and the lower boundary (the epidermal cells resting on the basement membrane) are in direct contact with the hemolymph (insect blood). |
