(n.) The number ten; a division into ten.
(n.) A coin; the Anglicized form of denarius.
Example Sentences:
(1) The flanks of the park have been dubbed "architects' row" in recognition of the new buildings that have sprung up by internationally-renowned designers such as Frank Gehry, Jean Nouvel and Neil Denari.
Dentary
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, or bearing, teeth.
(n.) The distal bone of the lower jaw in many animals, which may or may not bear teeth.
Example Sentences:
(1) The documenting fossils, an incomplete dentary containing three teeth, and four isolated teeth from other, conspecific individuals (Fig.
(2) A diagnostic mammalian character is jaw articulation between squamosal and dentary bones, replacing the quadrate-articular joint of reptiles.
(3) In addition, numerous replacement teeth and tooth germs in various stages of development are located in a cavity in the dentary bone.
(4) The mammalian mandible, a derivative of another membraneous bone of the reptilian lower jaw, the dentary, possesses secondary cartilages in the angular and condylar processes.
(5) Two dental cleansing products, Rc-Prep and Largal Ultra, were subjected to a comparative study, evaluating their efficacy in vitro on 15 recently-extracted dentary units, through optic microscopy applied on the dentine wall of the instrumented root canal.
(6) Auditory efficiency, and sensitivity to higher sound frequencies were enhanced by diminution and loosening of the postdentary elements and quadrate, along with transference of musculature from postdentary elements to the dentary.
(7) The highly mobile symphysis, spherical dentary condyle, loss of superficial masseter muscle and zygoma, and the simplified zalamnodont molars all appear to be related to the large amount of mandibular rotation that occurs during occlusion.
(8) A newly discovered Argentinian Middle Triassic form shows, for the first time in an ancestral reptile, definite evidence of a squamosal-dentary articulation supplementary to the persistent primitive connection.
(9) Stage 39 CMS embryos showed shortening of the dentary and Meckel's cartilage.
(10) Although the labial surface of the dentary lacks a periosteal covering and some of the bone lacks any covering at all, it remains functional throughout the life of the animal.
(11) The dentary-squamosal jaw joint evolved more than once in advanced cynodont therapsids or their descendants, probably as a buttress against the reaction force created at the articulation by the adductor jaw musculature.
(12) These changes were made possible by associated modifications, including posterior expansion of the dentary.
(13) Additionally, a proposal was put forth for a retained canine teeth classification that may clearly and simply outline the retention, be easily understood and remembered, and may also apply to retained dentary organs with some similarity to canines as to their shape and root number.
(14) These stresses are: (1) dorsoventral shear of the symphysis due to the transfer of force from balancing to chewing sides, (2) bending of the symphysis causing tension along the inferior and compression along superior borders due to torsion on the dentaries from the jaw closing muscles, and (3) antero-posterior shear of the symphysis due to an anteriorly directed stress on the chewing side.
(15) As hyaline-cell cartilage is densely cellular and as that attached to the dentary, maxilla and cleithrum develops from the periosteum of these membrane bones, it must be regarded as secondary cartilage according to current concepts.
(16) Ultrathin sections of the nasal barbel of the channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, were studied in the electron microscope and the fine structure was compared to that of barbels of other teleosts and to the mandibular (dentary) barbels of I. punctatus.
(17) Although variability was not considered as is usual in clinical studies, in vitro evaluation as observed in this study allows a more accurate comparative analysis, since it was performed on one individual tooth, with analogous instrumentation and on dentary tissue with similar characteristics.
(18) The banding patterns and relative amounts of the proteins from dentary, vertebra and scale showed a basic similarity.
(19) The electrophoretic patterns of the proteins extracted from dentary, vertebra and scale with the phosphate buffer, 0.1 NHcl and SDS solution were studied to investigate their molecular aspects.
(20) The development of hyaline-cell cartilage attached to membrane (dentary, maxilla, nasal, lacrimal and cleithrum) and cartilage (basioccipital) bones has been studied in the viviparous black molly, Poecilia sphenops.
