Pseudomelanism, also called abundism, is another variant of pigmentation, identifiable by dark spots or enlarged stripes, which cover a large part of the body of the animal, making it appear melanistic. [2] The morbid deposition of black matter, often of a malignant character causing pigmented tumors, is called melanosis. [3]
ND stands for nuclear domain, and 10 refers to the number of dots seen. [3] Additionally, a nuclear body subtype is a clastosome suggested to be a site of protein degradation. [4] While biomolecular condensate is a term often used interchangeably with nuclear bodies, the term "condensates" implies the thermodynamic properties of the body are ...
Red circles show the location and size of many dead zones (in 2008). Black dots show dead zones of unknown size. The size and number of marine dead zones—areas where the deep water is so low in dissolved oxygen that sea creatures cannot survive (except for some specialized bacteria)—have grown in the past half-century.

Sickle-cell anaemia is found mostly in tropical populations in Africa and India.An individual homozygous for the recessive sickle hemoglobin, HgbS, has a short expectancy of life, whereas the life expectancy of the standard hemoglobin (HgbA) homozygote as well as heterozygote is normal (though heterozygote individuals will suffer periodic problems).
