(n.) A gun so placed as to rake an enemy's ship.
(n.) See Gill rakers, under 1st Gill.
Example Sentences:
(1) The gill bars (bearing gill rakers that interlock with rakers of adjacent arches) clearly function as a resistance within the oral cavity and restrict posterior water influx during mouth opening, creating a unidirectional flow during feeding.
(2) The threshold of both filament-related and gill raker mechanoreceptors was relatively high.
(3) The basal lamina exhibits a smooth contour over most of the gill surface with the exception of the short gill rakers where it formed cones within the taste bud cores, and on the respiratory lamellae where it closely mimicked the underlying capillary network.
(4) Two rows of gill filaments (about 42 filaments per row) extended posterolaterally, and two rows of gill rakers (about 10 rakers per row) extended anteromedially from each arch.
(5) Anatomical examinations showed that fluid channels in the buccal chamber and gill raker sieve are complex and can be expected to vary spatially and temporally throughout the respiratory cycle.
(6) Physiological properties of gill filament and gill raker mechanoreceptors in the gills of spontaneously breathing carp, Cyprinus carpio L., were analysed.
