The lentiform nucleus (or lentiform complex, lenticular nucleus, or lenticular complex) are the putamen (laterally) and the globus pallidus (medially), collectively. Due to their proximity, these two structures were formerly considered one, however, the two are separated by a thin layer of white matter—the external medullary lamina—and are functionally and connectionally distinct.
A lenticular lens is an array of lenses, designed so that when viewed from slightly different angles, different parts of the image underneath are shown. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ failed verification – see discussion ] The most common example is the lenses used in lenticular printing , where the technology is used to give an illusion of depth, or to make ...
The lens is located towards the front part of the vertebrate eye, called the anterior segment, which includes the cornea and iris positioned in front of the lens. The lens is held in place by the suspensory ligaments (Zonule of Zinn), [1] attaching the lens at its equator to the rest of the eye [2] [3] through the ciliary body.
Lenticular is an adjective often relating to lenses. It may refer to: A term used with two meanings in botany: see Glossary of botanical terms § lenticular; Lenticular cloud, a lens-shaped cloud; Lenticular galaxy, a lens-shaped galaxy; Lenticular (geology), adjective describing a formation with a lens-shaped cross-section
The dark horizontal lines on silver birch bark are the lenticels. [1]A lenticel is a porous tissue consisting of cells with large intercellular spaces in the periderm of the secondarily thickened organs and the bark of woody stems and roots of gymnosperms and dicotyledonous flowering plants. [2]
An example of a lenticular fabric sheet that changes from a blue background with white stars to a white background with red stars. A lenticular fabric is a lattice-like arrangement of lens-shaped materials formed into a thin layer. [1] When the surface of the fabric is smooth, it often has a reflective and light-distorting appearance.
Lithographic lenticular printing allows for the flat side of the lenticular sheet to have ink placed directly onto the lens, while high-resolution photographic lenticulars typically have the image laminated to the lens. [citation needed] Lenticular images saw a surge in popularity in the first decade of the 21st century, appearing on the cover ...
Lens shown next to a road. In geology, a lens or lentil is a body of ore or rock that is thick in the middle and thin at the edges, resembling a convex lens in cross-section. [1] To thin out in all directions is to "lens out", also known as "lensing". The adjectives "lenticular" and "lentiform" are used to describe lens-like formations.
