Anatomy, Embryology, and Comparative Anatomy

1993
The ovaries are solid, slightly nodular, pink-gray bodies with the approximate proportions of unshelled almonds. They are situated on either side of the uterus, behind and below the uterine tubes. The human ovary undergoes marked changes in size, shape, and position during its lifetime in addition to the histologic changes brought about by various ...

Comparative Anatomy of the Ciliary Nerves

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1960
In view of the current interest in nervous influences on intraocular structures, it was thought timely to re-examine the anatomy and topographical interrelations of the posterior ciliary nerves of several species used in recent neurophysiological investigations.

COMPARATIVE ANATOMY OF THE EYE

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1936
I. THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ANTERIOR SEGMENT AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE VERTEBRATE EYE AS A WHOLE The result of an embryologic study of the development of the anterior segment of the eye 1 proved to be of special interest for the evolution of the eye as a whole and gave rise to the conceptions presented in this paper.

Comparative anatomy of the rotator cuff

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2009
While the evolution of the bony skeleton of the shoulder girdle is well described, there is little information regarding the soft tissues, in particular of the rotator cuff. We dissected the shoulders of 23 different species and compared the anatomical features of the tendons of the rotator cuff.

The comparative anatomy of immunity

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1964
A study was made of the antigenic reactivity of the spleen, appendix, intestine and esophagus in hens by estimating the PAS—positive and pyroninophilic cells. The amount of lymphatic tissue was determined in the hen conjunctiva. The greatest number of PAS—positive cells was revealed in the membrane proper of appendices and intestine, the least-in the ...

Birth of primate comparative anatomy

Evolutionary Anthropology: Issues, News, and Reviews, 2020
AbstractIn 1698, a creature with a perplexing mix of human and “ape” features died in London. Brought back to England by merchants who had acquired it during a trading mission to West Africa, it attracted the attention of the Royal Society, and after the death of what we now know was a juvenile chimpanzee, Edward Tyson, a distinguished physician ...

COMPARATIVE ANATOMY OF EUCRYPHIACEAE

American Journal of Botany, 1978
Aspects of vegetative and floral morphology and anatomy of five species of Eucryphia Cav. are described. Differences in wood structure, type and complexity of petiole and leaf vascularization, presence or absence of complex abaxial cuticular protrusions on the leaves, and patterns of floral vasculature are useful in species delimitation.

Comparative Anatomy of the Shoulder

2015
In the evolution from fishes to tetrapods and ultimately primates, the pectoral girdle underwent some important changes. While the pectoral girdle was strongly fixed to the head in fishes, the detachment of the pectoral girdle from the head in the early tetrapods enabled the head to move freely.
