The Speech! allophone-based speech synthesizer software for the BBC Micro was tweaked to pronounce ghoti as fish. [13] Examination of the code reveals the string GHOTI used to identify the special case. In the Yu-Gi-Oh! Trading Card Game, there is a series of fish-type cards called "Ghoti". [14]
Crustaceans (from Latin meaning: "those with shells" or "crusted ones") are invertebrate animals that constitute one group of arthropods that are traditionally a part of the subphylum Crustacea (/ k r ə ˈ s t eɪ ʃ ə /), a large, diverse group of mainly aquatic arthropods including decapods (shrimps, prawns, crabs, lobsters and crayfish), seed shrimp, branchiopods, fish lice, krill ...
The larger bone is the cleithrum. The cleithrum (pl.: cleithra) is a membrane bone which first appears as part of the skeleton in primitive bony fish, where it runs vertically along the scapula. [1] Its name is derived from Greek κλειθρον = "key (lock)", by analogy with "clavicle" from Latin clavicula = "little key".
Fish bone is any bony tissue in a fish, although in common usage the term refers specifically to delicate parts of the non-vertebral skeleton of such as ribs, fin spines and intramuscular bones. Not all fish have fish bones in this sense; for instance, eels and anglerfish do not possess bones other than the cranium and the vertebrae.
Sarcopterygii (/ ˌ s ɑːr k ɒ p t ə ˈ r ɪ dʒ i. aɪ /; from Ancient Greek σάρξ (sárx) ' flesh ' and πτέρυξ (ptérux) ' wing, fin ') — sometimes considered synonymous with Crossopterygii (from Ancient Greek κροσσός (krossós) ' fringe ') — is a clade (traditionally a class or subclass) of vertebrate animals which includes a group of bony fish commonly referred to as ...
The supraesophageal ganglion (also "supraoesophageal ganglion", "arthropod brain" or "microbrain" [1]) is the first part of the arthropod, especially insect, central nervous system. It receives and processes information from the first, second, and third metameres .
During the Carboniferous Period, Earth's atmospheric oxygen levels surged, helping some plants and animals grow to gigantic proportions. One notable example was Arthropleura, the biggest bug ever ...
In fish, it provides the base for the pectoral fin. [ 4 ] Monotremes , as well as the extinct therapsids , possess both the coracoid bone of reptiles (aka the procoracoid , or anterior coracoid ), and the coracoid process of other mammals , with the latter being present as a separate bone.
