  2. Feather - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feather

    Feather evolution was broken down into the following stages by Xu and Guo in 2009: [90] Single filament; Multiple filaments joined at their base; Multiple filaments joined at their base to a central filament; Multiple filaments along the length of a central filament; Multiple filaments arising from the edge of a membranous structure

  3. Feather development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feather_development

    It is in the dermis that the follicle and the pulp cavity begin to form the feather. The pulp cavity is the space that contains the feather follicle. The feather filament soon grows out of the follicle; this is due to cell proliferation, which is an increased number of cells as a result cell growth and division, at the follicle base. These new ...

    By analysis of the primary structures of these keratins and other intermediate filament proteins, Hanukoglu and Fuchs suggested a model in which keratins and intermediate filament proteins contain a central ~310 residue domain with four segments in α-helical conformation that are separated by three short linker segments predicted to be in beta ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yutyrannus

    The feathers were long, up to 20 centimetres (7.9 in), and filamentous. Because the quality of the preservation was low, it could not be established whether the filaments were simple or compound, broad or narrow. The feathers covered various parts of the body. With the holotype they were present on the pelvis and near the foot.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feathered_dinosaur

    The extent to which feathers or feather-like structures were present in dinosaurs as a whole is a subject of ongoing debate and research. It has been suggested that feathers had originally functioned as thermal insulation , as it remains their function in the down feathers of infant birds prior to their eventual modification in birds into ...

  8. Sinosauropteryx - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinosauropteryx

    The longest feathers present on the forearm measured 14 mm (0.55 in). [2] Though the feathers are too dense to isolate a single structure for examination, several studies have suggested the presence of two distinct filament types (thick and thin) interspersed with each other.

  9. Beipiaosaurus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beipiaosaurus

    The EBFFs differ from other feather types in that they consist of a single, unbranched filament. Most other primitive feathered dinosaurs have down-like feathers made up of two or more filaments branching out from a common base or along a central shaft.
