  2. Segmentation (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmentation_(biology)

    Segmentation in biology is the division of some animal and plant body plans into a linear series of repetitive segments that may or may not be interconnected to each other. This article focuses on the segmentation of animal body plans, specifically using the examples of the taxa Arthropoda , Chordata , and Annelida .

    Example image for segmentation problem. Shown are nuclei of mouse NIH 3T3, stained with Hoechst and a segmentation in red. [8] Segmentation of cells is an important sub-problem in many of the fields below (and sometimes useful on its own if the goal is only to obtain a cell count in a viability assay). The goal is to identify the boundaries of ...

  4. Body plan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_plan

    Evolutionary developmental biology seeks to explain the origins of diverse body plans. Body plans have historically been considered to have evolved in a flash in the Ediacaran biota ; filling the Cambrian explosion with the results, and a more nuanced understanding of animal evolution suggests gradual development of body plans throughout the ...

  5. Segment polarity gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segment_polarity_gene

    The gooseberry gene's role in segmentation was believed to be involved in segment-polarity class of segmentation genes required for the formation of larval segments because, during embryogenesis, half of the larval segments are replaced by the remain half segment, but in a reversed polarity, which suggested that gooseberry was a single gene. [8]

  6. Segmentation gene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Segmentation_gene

    A segmentation gene is a gene involved in the early developmental stages of pattern formation. It regulates how cells are organized and defines repeated units in the embryo . Segmentation genes have been documented in three taxa: arthropods (i.e. insects and crabs ), [ 2 ] chordates (i.e. mammals and fish ), and annelids (i.e. leeches and ...

  9. Metamerism (biology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metamerism_(biology)

    Earthworms are a classic example of biological homonymous metamery – the property of repeating body segments with distinct regions. In biology, metamerism is the phenomenon of having a linear series of body segments fundamentally similar in structure, though not all such structures are entirely alike in any single life form because some of them perform special functions.
