<h3><u><em>Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. Taking one atom of 14C, this will either have decayed after 5,730 years, or it will not. But if this experiment is repeated again and again, it will be seen that the atom decays within the half life 50% of the time.</em></u></h3>
A true exoskeleton, like that found in arthropods, must be shed (moulted) when it is outgrown. ... The new exoskeleton is still capable of growing to some degree, however. Animals of the order arthropoda, like lizards, amphibians, and many other animals that shed their skin, are indeterminate growers
