Arborescent


Definition:

  • (a.) Resembling a tree; becoming woody in stalk; dendritic; having crystallizations disposed like the branches and twigs of a tree.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) A characteristic feature of the sensory nerve terminations of the branchial apparatus in fishes is their arborescent structure, a diffuse disposition of terminal branches and absence of special cells from the receptor.

  • (3) Three species of arborescent bryozoans share a bias in growth rate that favors reverser branches (those whose direction of growth is opposite that of their parent branch); this bias produces a common hummocky appearance to the top margin of the colony.
  • (4) So, with this profile of fragments it is possible to build a spanning tree (PRIM'S arborescent skeleton) and to place a priori on it, new structures with other properties to value their activity level in the designed field.
  • (5) These same cells produce dentinal tubules which are more irregular in their course, more arborescent, with more lateral branches, wider in diameter and less numerous than are the tubules of the labial orthodentin.
  • (6) The arborescent processes of neurons that are necessary for the transmission of the information are formed by branching and elongation of segments.
  • (7) Connectivity was characterized either by applying the system of Strahler ordering, which assigns a relative order of magnitude to each branch of the arborescence or by the identification of unique topological branching patterns within the tree.
