Coxal gland and its components. The coxal gland is a gland found in some arthropods, for collecting and excreting urine. They are found in all arachnids (with the exception of some Acari), and in other chelicerates, such as horseshoe crabs. [1] The coxal gland is thought to be homologous with the antennal gland of crustaceans.
The three basic segments of the typical insect antenna are the scape or scapus (base), the pedicel or pedicellus (stem), and finally the flagellum, which often comprises many units known as flagellomeres. [10] The pedicel (the second segment) contains the Johnston's organ which is a collection of sensory cells. [11]
An ionocyte (formerly called a chloride cell) is a mitochondrion-rich cell within ionoregulatory organs of animals, such as teleost fish gill, insect Malpighian tubules, crustacean gills, antennal glands and maxillary glands, and copepod Crusalis organs. [1]
In Crustacea, the saccate metanephridia are associated with the antennae and form the antennal gland. In freshwater crustacea , the saccate metanephridia are especially large due to their role in osmoregulation; crustacea must remove large amounts of water from the tissues, as the cells are hypertonic to the surrounding water.
A tripartite structure is recorded from near the antennae, consisting of elevated walls arranged in a semicircle (likely to enlarge the surface for an excretory organ as in modern crustaceans), a pore representing an opening of the “antennal gland” (the purpose of which is unknown) and a sickle-shaped furrow surrounding this pore.
According to the New York Times, here's exactly how to play Strands: Find theme words to fill the board. Theme words stay highlighted in blue when found.
Historically, it was believed that only insects had mushroom bodies, because they were not present in crabs and lobsters. However, their discovery in the mantis shrimp in 2017 lead to the later conclusion [2] that the mushroom body is the ancestral state of all arthropods, and that this feature was later lost in crabs and lobsters.
Still, Trump's nomination of Scott Bessent to the top Treasury post raised hopes that tariffs will be more measured. And with only 21 trading days left in the year, analysts, investors, and market ...
