What's the difference between exopodite and squame?
Exopodite
Definition:
(n.) The external branch of the appendages of Crustacea.
Example Sentences:
(1) No significant correlation between the ipsilateral phase relations of adjacent exopodites and base cycle duration was detected for any of the stages (figure 6).
(2) A description is given of the exopodite apparatus of the thoracic appendages that provide lift and propulsive power in these stages.
(3) Thus the return-stroke muscle of the larval exopodites in which muscle fiber and motoneurons are identifiable permits study of the interaction between a neuron and its target muscle undergoing programmed obsolescence.
(4) The primary locomotory apparatus in the three larval stages of the lobster, Homarus americanus, are paddlelike structures on the thoracic appendages called exopodites, which beat almost continuously.
(5) They receive sensory input from the exopodite of the contralateral side as well as that of the ipsilateral side.
(6) A study has been made of the interrelations between rhythmical exopodite beating in different larval stages and swimmeret beating in poast-larval stages of the lobster Homarus gammarus.
(7) Differences emerge in the performance of larval exopodites and post-larval swimmerets (table 6b), although the possibility cannot be excluded that the larval exopodite oscillator in some way influences the developing action of the post-larval swimmeret system.
(8) Raw data on exopodite beating in the first three developmental stages of the lobster Homarus gammarus were collected and analysed for key beating parameters.
(9) While an experimentally generated discontinuity between the lateral margin of the exopodite and the medial margin of the endopodite (outer-to-outer junction) triggers intercalation of supernumerary rami, a discontinuity of pattern between the medial margin of the exopodite and the lateral margin of the endopodite (inner-to-inner junction) is stable despite the absence of intervening intersegmental membrane.
(10) The exopodite beating pattern was discussed in context with other metachronously cycling systems in arthropods and the implications of the present study discussed.
(11) One of the uropod closer muscles in the crayfish, the adductor exopodite, is innervated by two large identified motor neurons.
(12) 1, mainly receive excitatory input from the afferents of the contralateral exopodite, whereas inverting PL interneurons receive inhibitory input.
(13) Musculature is peculiar to the exopodites and concerned with rotational movements of the appendage.
(14) Continued atrophy in the postlarval fourth stage reduces the exopodites to vestiges.
(15) Occasionally, these two adductor exopodite motor neurons were found as adjacent postsynaptic profiles at the same synapse when both cells were stained simultaneously in the same preparation.
(16) This result is inconsistent with physiological evidence which suggests that spikeless interactions occur between the two adductor exopodite motor neurons and their synergists.
(17) Inter-exopodite comparisons reveal clear bilateral differences (table 1), although there is no consistently favoured relationship (tables 2 and 3).
(18) Ipsilateral phase relations are generally maintained at 0.4-0.6 (figures, 3,4) and while the coupling between adjacent exopodites is usually stronger than for those further apart various deviations from this are occasionally seen (figure 5).
(19) Data on exopodite beat cycle durations have been used for statistical comparisons of exopodite performance within one larva, and also between different stages of larval development.
(20) The most caudal limb in crayfish, the uropod, has two rami, the exopodite and the endopodite.
Squame
Definition:
(n.) A scale.
(n.) The scale, or exopodite, of an antenna of a crustacean.
Example Sentences:
(1) The relative contribution from loose scurf or from stratum corneum squames was not determined.
(2) Three farmers had specific IgE to pig squames or urine and eight to feed components but none to the microbial extracts.
(3) Localization of the CEA to the cell membrane of mature cervical squames suggests a key role for these antigens in maintaining the integrity of the squamous mucosa, through the putative function of an adhesion molecule.
(4) Depending on the culture system, the extent of terminal differentiation and squame accumulation varies.
(5) The Feulgen-DNA contents of human leukocytes, sperm, and oral squames were investigated by scanning and integrating microdensitometry, both with and without correction for residual distribution error and glare.
(6) Gonococci were found to become firmly attached to stratified squamous epithelium, a process that appeared to be initiated by activity of the cytoplasmic membrane of superficial squames.
(7) A new type of squame arrangements is described in guinea-pig ear epidermis.
(8) Less consistent components are aplasia of mammillary bodies, fusion of thalami, anomalies of cerebral gyral patterns, bifid atlas or bifid occipital squame, elevation of torcular, and cervical hydromyelia.
(9) The significance of anucleated squames in Papanicolaou-stained cervicovaginal smears as a marker of hyperkeratosis with an underlying significant atypia was evaluated.
(10) Photomicrographs show fetal squames and lanugo hairs in the pulmonary capillaries as well as ones aspirated from the right atrium.
(11) We have performed studied of reaggregation from single squames prepared by these methods.
(12) Thus, reporting the presence of anucleated squames in the absence of any other abnormality appears to be of marginal value as a screening procedure for predicting the existence of a significant lesion.
(13) We have employed the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) to detect Human Papillomavirus (HPV) type 16 in oral squames and mononuclear cells from 62 healthy young adult volunteers.
(14) Lipid-covered stratum corneum squames were identified in crop, midgut, rectum and faeces.
(15) At necropsy squames could be still be identified in an infarcted area of lung and the clinical diagnosis proved.
(16) C. albicans, usually the yeast form, was present on the exposed surface and between hyperplastic keratin squames.
(17) Digestion of intracellular keratin is obvious, but the resistant cell wall of the squames remain unaltered.
(18) This pattern develops in epidermis that is thicker than about 42 micron; in thinner epidermis the outer cells and squames form the usual columnar stacks.
(19) Supplementary biotin affected the structure of the coronary epidermis; there was an increase in the density of the horn tubules in the stratum medium, the horny squames in the stratum medium were more tightly packed and the tubules were more clearly defined in the pigs receiving biotin.
(20) Using a panel of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies to CEA-related antigens in paraffin-processed cervical biopsies, CEA and NCA expression has been demonstrated on the cell membrane of normal mature cervical squames.
