Which mechanism initiates exoskeleton shedding during molting stages?

💡 Explanation

Increased ecdysone secretion triggers apolysis and ecdysis because these elevate enzymes dissolving the old cuticle (molting fluid), therefore, initiating shedding, rather than suppression of chitin or disruption of prothoracic secretions at this stage of metamorphosis.
