Points in the amoeba of (,,) = + + Note that the amoeba is actually 3-dimensional, and not a surface (this is not entirely evident from the image). In complex analysis, a branch of mathematics, an amoeba is a set associated with a polynomial in one or more complex variables.
Clockwise from top right: Amoeba proteus, Actinophrys sol, Acanthamoeba sp., Nuclearia thermophila., Euglypha acanthophora, neutrophil ingesting bacteria. An amoeba (/ ə ˈ m iː b ə /; less commonly spelled ameba or amœba; pl.: amoebas (less commonly, amebas) or amoebae (amebae) / ə ˈ m iː b i /), [1] often called an amoeboid, is a type of cell or unicellular organism with the ability ...
Dictyostelium discoideum is a species of soil-dwelling amoeba belonging to the phylum Amoebozoa, infraphylum Mycetozoa. Commonly referred to as slime mold, D. discoideum is a eukaryote that transitions from a collection of unicellular amoebae into a multicellular slug and then into a fruiting body within its lifetime.
An amoeba of the genus Mayorella (Amoebozoa, Discosea) Amoebozoa is a large and diverse group, but certain features are common to many of its members. The amoebozoan cell is typically divided into a granular central mass, called endoplasm, and a clear outer layer, called ectoplasm. During locomotion, the endoplasm flows forwards and the ...
The method uses the concept of a simplex, which is a special polytope of n + 1 vertices in n dimensions. Examples of simplices include a line segment in one-dimensional space, a triangle in two-dimensional space, a tetrahedron in three-dimensional space, and so forth.
Diagram showing how a Dictyostelium discoideum amoeba responds to cAMP. The mechanism behind the aggregation of the amoebae relies on cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) as a signal molecule. One cell, the founder of the colony, begins to secrete cAMP in response to stress. Others detect this signal, and respond in two ways:
New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers has developed many beefs over the last few years, but his latest has come with ESPN analyst Ryan Clark.
Iodamoeba buetschlii is a species of amoeba. [1] It gets its name from its appearance when stained with iodine. [2] Named for Otto Bütschli by Prowazek in 1912, Iodamoeba buetschlii is a nonpathogenic parasitic ameba, commonly found in the large intestines of people, pigs and other mammals. The distribution of I. buetschlii is worldwide.
