What's the difference between crabeater and etheostomoid?
Crabeater
Definition:
(n.) The cobia.
(n.) An etheostomoid fish of the southern United States (Hadropterus nigrofasciatus).
(n.) A small European heron (Ardea minuta, and other allied species).
Example Sentences:
(1) Ultrastructural study of the Leydig cells of nonbreeding crabeater, leopard and Ross seals showed that three types of cells could be distinguished.
(2) However, the tubules of leopard and Ross seals had more primary and secondary spermatocytes and spermatids than the crabeater seals.
(3) Corticosteroid values in response to brief confinement in a transport cage were compared between rhesus, bonnet, and crabeating macaques before and after they were trained to enter the cage.
(4) Carbohydrate components were investigated in the bronchial glands and goblet cells of two species of seals with different diving habits (Weddell seal, Crabeater seal).
(5) The two species differ in respect of their carbohydrate histochemistry, e.g., the PAS reaction gives only a faint stain at the apical membrane in the bronchial glands of the Weddell seal, whereas in the Crabeater seal several cells give a positive reaction in the entire cytoplasm; or RCA I has only few binding sites at the apical membranes of the bronchial glandular cells of the Weddell seal whereas many cells of Crabeater bronchial glands react strongly positive.
(6) Values for random serum 25-OHD values in seals showed large interspecies differences, the values for Weddell seals being significantly greater than for Crabeater seals (P less than 0.01).
(7) Spleens of three species of Antarctic seals with different diving habits (Weddell seal, crabeater seal, and fur seal) have been studied with histological, histochemical, and electron microscopic methods.
(8) The intestinal disaccharidase activities of a suckling crabeater seal were investigated.
(9) The fine structure of seminiferous tubules from 5 crabeater, 2 leopard and 2 Ross seals showed that during the nonbreeding season the tubules were essentially similar in possessing spermatogenic and Sertoli cells.
(10) Rhesus showed the smallest adrenocortical response to cage confinement after training and crabeaters the greatest, suggesting that this group habituated more slowly to confinement than the other two groups.
(11) The hearts and ascending aortae of 11 Weddell seals, Leptonychotes weddelli, three adult Crabeater seals, Lobodon carcinophagus, two adult Ross seals, Ommatophoca rossi, and one adult Leopard seal, Hydrurga leptonyx, were examined for comparison with terrestrial forms.
(12) Bonnets took longer to train than rhesus or crabeaters.
(13) The screening assay has been used to identify successfully both heterozygous and homozygous arginase-deficient crabeater macaques (M. fascicularis) as well as three patients with hyperargininemia.
Etheostomoid
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, or like, the genus Etheostoma.
(n.) Any fish of the genus Etheostoma and related genera, allied to the perches; -- also called darter. The etheostomoids are small and often bright-colored fishes inhabiting the fresh waters of North America. About seventy species are known. See Darter.
