The mechanical linkages between the limbs and trunk is important for the stabilization of multi-limb coordination movements. In return, the CNS will receive information of mechanical state of the limbs and trunk as it interacts with the environment through somatosensory feedback from the periphery.
Branch attachment in common ash Fraxinus excelsior L. Figure 1: Anatomical drawing of the wood grain of a branch attachment in a tree. Initially branches are mechanically attached to the trunks of trees by forming interlocking wood grain patterns at the top of the joint, within what is known as 'axillary wood' (Fig. 1). [1]
Stride range of motion: the leg's integrated path between stance onset and swing offset. Joint angles: Walking can also be quantified through the analysis of joint angles. [10] [11] [12] During legged locomotion, an animal flexes and extends its joints in an oscillatory manner, creating a joint angle pattern that repeats across steps. The ...
A bough can also be called a limb or arm, and though these are arguably metaphors, both are widely accepted synonyms for bough. [4] [5] A crotch or fork is an area where a trunk splits into two or more boughs. A twig is frequently referred to as a sprig as well, especially when it has been plucked. [6]
Skeletons of a human and an elephant. Comparative foot morphology involves comparing the form of distal limb structures of a variety of terrestrial vertebrates.Understanding the role that the foot plays for each type of organism must take account of the differences in body type, foot shape, arrangement of structures, loading conditions and other variables.
The criteria to diagnose a right bundle branch block on the electrocardiogram: The heart rhythm must originate above the ventricles (i.e., sinoatrial node, atria or atrioventricular node) to activate the conduction system at the correct point. The QRS duration must be more than 100 ms (incomplete block) or more than 120 ms (complete block). [9]

Vertebrate limbs are organized into stylopod, zeugopod, and autopod. The limb is organized into three regions: stylopod, zeugopod, and autopod (in order from proximal to distal). The zeugopod and the autopod contain a number of periodic and quasi-periodic pattern motifs. The zeugopod consists of two parallel elements along the anteroposterior ...
