What's the difference between lobster and scarlet?
Lobster
Definition:
(n.) Any large macrurous crustacean used as food, esp. those of the genus Homarus; as the American lobster (H. Americanus), and the European lobster (H. vulgaris). The Norwegian lobster (Nephrops Norvegicus) is similar in form. All these have a pair of large unequal claws. The spiny lobsters of more southern waters, belonging to Palinurus, Panulirus, and allied genera, have no large claws. The fresh-water crayfishes are sometimes called lobsters.
Example Sentences:

Midgut gland, abdominal muscle and gill of intermolt lobsters respond to temperature acclimation by a compensatory translation of the rate-temperature (R-T) curves with respect to the rates of incorporation of 3H-leucine and 3H-uridine into the acid-insoluble fraction.
(16) The role of histidyls in lobster arginine kinase (EC 2.7.3.3) has been studied by 1H-NMR spectroscopy of the enzyme and its complexes with substrates or their analogues and 31P-NMR spectroscopy of complexes with ADP.
(17) When the monocarboxymethylated enzyme was briefly treated with small amounts of iodine, iodination could be confined almost entirely to tyrosine-46 in the lobster enzyme; tyrosine-39 or tyrosine-42, or both, were also beginning to react.

(19) Estrone, 17 beta-estradiol, or 17 alpha-estradiol was formed by central neural tissues of all species, with the exception of the opossum, hagfish, and lobster.
(20) Two metallothionein (low-molecular-weight, metal-binding proteins) preparations, MT-1 and MT-2, have been isolated from the digestive gland of American lobster (Homarus americanus) contaminated with Cd.

(6) Even if Clegg's ideas are proving changeable, the party faithful will ensure he remains a yellow rather than a scarlet or blue pimpernel – any decision that affects party independence will have to be agreed by three-quarters of their MPs.
(7) Scarlet fever has until recently been associated with a high childhood mortality, the pathogenesis of which is related to interdependent primary toxicity and secondary toxicity (including delayed-type hypersensitivity) to streptococcal antigen (erythrogenic toxin), leading to cellular damage and potentially lethal shock.
(8) Although most of the matches will be at home, it's the sort of run that would have some managers turning scarlet with rage.
