  2. Endodermis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endodermis

    The endodermis is the boundary between the cortex and the stele. In many seedless plants, such as ferns, the endodermis is a distinct layer of cells immediately outside the vascular cylinder (stele) in roots and shoots. In most seed plants, especially woody types, the endodermis is present in roots but not in stems.

  3. Casparian strip - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casparian_strip

    The discovery of the Casparian strip dates back to the mid-19th century, and advances in the understanding of the endodermis of plant roots. [15] In 1865, the German botanist Robert Caspary first described the endodermis of the root of plants, found that its cell wall was thickened, and named it Schuchtzscheide.

  4. Bølling–Allerød Interstadial - Wikipedia

    Large and diverse inventories of bone, antler, and ivory implements are common, and ornamentation and art are associated with all major industries. Insights into the technology of the time can also be seen in features such as structures, pits, and hearths mapped on open-air occupation areas scattered across the East European Plain.

  5. Root hair - Wikipedia

    The mycorrhizae of the fungus then uses its extended system to help the plant find the correct area of nutrition, signaling the direction in which the roots should grow. [13] This makes root growth more efficient, preserving energy for other metabolic processes, which in turn benefits the fungus that feeds off those metabolic products.

  6. Germ layer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germ_layer

    A germ layer is a primary layer of cells that forms during embryonic development. [1] The three germ layers in vertebrates are particularly pronounced; however, all eumetazoans (animals that are sister taxa to the sponges) produce two or three primary germ layers.

  7. Osteosclerosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteosclerosis

    Osteosclerosis is a disorder characterized by abnormal hardening of bone and an elevation in bone density. It may predominantly affect the medullary portion and/or cortex of bone. Plain radiographs are a valuable tool for detecting and classifying osteosclerotic disorders. [1] [2] It can manifest in localized or generalized osteosclerosis.

  8. Mesoderm - Wikipedia

    Some of the mesoderm derivatives include the muscle (smooth, cardiac, and skeletal), the muscles of the tongue (occipital somites), the pharyngeal arches muscle (muscles of mastication, muscles of facial expressions), connective tissue, the dermis and subcutaneous layer of the skin, bone and cartilage, dura mater, the endothelium of blood ...

    Fat is absent from the eyelids, clitoris, penis, much of pinna, and scrotum [1] Blood vessels on route to the dermis [6] Lymphatic vessels on route from the dermis [7] The glandular part of some sweat glands; mammary glands lie entirely within the subcutaneous tissue [8] (which are modified apocrine sweat glands) [9] Cutaneous nerves [7] and ...
