In plants, a layer of waxy substance on the outer surface of epidermal cell walls In animals, the outermost layer of many invertebrates
(1) a waxy covering on the surface of stems and leaves that acts as an adaptation to prevent desiccation in terrestrial plants (2) the exoskeleton of an arthropod, consisting of layers of protein and chitin that are variously modified for different functions
the continuous layer of cutin secreted by the epidermis, it prevents plant desiccation by being impervious to water and gas exchange and covers the aerial parts of the plant body, broken only by stomata and lenticels
1 Impermeable layer made of cutan on the outer surface of the epidermis of plants 2 Hard protecting layer covering the epidermis of arthropods
Waxy layer which seals the outer surface of land plants, helping to retain moisture
{i} skin which surrounds the fingernails and toenails; epidermis, outer layer of skin; cuticula, hard outer shell of some insects (Entomology)
The outermost skin or pellicle of a plant, found especially in leaves and young stems
The outer layer of cells of a fiber which are hard, flattened and do not fit together evenly and whose tips point away from the fiber shaft forming serrated edges These serrated edges cause the fibers to grip together during processing and manufacturing See also Scales
The hardened layer that covers the body of a spider It provides a combinatin of rigidity and flexibility It serves a protective function (like armour) and since it is relatively impermeable to water, helps prevent dessication (loss of water) It also provides a rigid base for the attachment of muscles The cuticle remains soft at the joints to permit movement
the thin skin of the plant This is thicker and waxy to maintain moisture in emersed growth
A waxy hydrophobic material that is produced on the outer surface of most leaves, which functions to reduce internal water loss
The exterior layer of the skeleton of anthropods formed of Chitin and protein, may be tanned
Your cuticles are the skin at the base of each of your fingernails. the area of hard skin around the base of your nails (cuticula, from cutis )
Transparent skin that grows out from under the proximal nail fold (eponychium) that is attached to the nail plate The true cuticle sheds a non-living "skin" that must be removed before most nail services The non-living skin is commonly and wrongfully called the pterygium You cannot see the true cuticle (it's under the eponychium)
