What's the difference between plumose and plumosity?
Plumose
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Plumous
Example Sentences:
(1) The large plumose setae are studied in Palaemon serratus (Decapoda) and Sphaeroma serratum (Isopoda) during premolt.
(2) Near the posterior border of the lingual zone covered by plumose papillae, mucous cells begin to appear in the glandular epithelium.
(3) The third quarter of the tongue is covered by papillae of novel morphology that we have named "plumose papillae."
(4) In both sexes the swimmeret rami are lined by "feathered hairs" (plumose setae).
(5) That portion of the dorsal surface of the tongue of Anolis carolinensis that is covered by plumose papillae is underlaid by a series of tubular salivary glands that open between the papillae; glands persist into the posterior zone of the tongue, where they open between cylindriform papillae.
(6) The plumose papillae and their retinue of plume cells are unique morphological structures that may be important in mastication and deglutition of food.
