Annelid
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Annelidan
Example Sentences:

(4) These include insects, chelicerates, most crustaceans, annelids, priapulids, nematodes, and some sipunculids.
(5) Such a pattern of subunit aggregation has not been observed previously in annelid extracellular hemoglobins and chlorocruorins.
(6) This characteristic distribution of the various neuron subgroups and fiber pathways may represent functional circuits within the nervous system of this annelid.
(7) The emonctory structures, functions and stereotype and their component parts are studied in protists, spongia, coelenterata and coelomata: lower worms, annelids, their hyponeurian descendents (arthropods, molluses) and epineurian descedents echinoderms and protochordates (Stomochordata, Tunicata, Cephalochordata).
(8) Only the position of the mitochondria, inserted between nucelus and axoneme, is reminiscent of annelid features.

(11) The pattern and degree of accumulation was essentially complete within 2 years after the initial operation of the power plant, and persisted throughout the remainder of the study: fishes greater than insects greater than annelids greater than molluscs greater than crustaceans greater than plankton greater than periphyton.
(12) In this paper we described a third type of repeat isolated from the genome of a Polychaete annelid: Owenia fusiformis.
(13) A hypothesis is proposed in order to explain the differences observed between biochemical and present results, which suggest, for the hardening of cements a different chemical mechanism to that suggested by Vovelle in annelid Sabellaria alveolata.
(14) Experiments were conducted to assess the relationship between annelid age and susceptibility of the annelid as an intermediate host for a caryophyllaeid, as well as the effect a mixed-species infection has on rate of metacestode development and parasite mortality.
(15) We conclude that all annelid extracellular haemoglobins and chlorocruorins which have the same dimensions as Lumbricus haemoglobin probably have the same mol.

(17) Dialyzed extracts of one of these annelids, Lanice conchilega, show activity in the retentate after pronase digestion, suggesting that antitumor activity is associated with a nonprotein component of the crude tentacle extract.
(18) The sequences of nine chains of annelid giant hemoglobins were compared separately in the functionally essential central exonic region and structurally essential side exonic regions, and a phylogenetic tree was constructed.
(19) In embryos of the glossiphoniid leech, Helobdella triserialis, as in many annelids, cytoplasmic reorganization prior to first cleavage generates distinct animal and vegetal domains of yolk-deficient cytoplasm, called teloplasm.
(20) A marked increase in the abundance of the annelid Polydora ligni in aquariums containing sand and flowing estuarine water was altered in the presence of the carbamate insecticide Sevin (carbaryl).
Lithophagous
Definition:
(a.) Eating or swallowing stones or gravel, as the ostrich.
(a.) Eating or destroying stone; -- applied to various animals which make burrows in stone, as many bivalve mollusks, certain sponges, annelids, and sea urchins. See Lithodomus.
