Postembryonic development of the predatory strike mechanics in a praying mantis (Insecta: Mantodea)
Praying mantis forelegs capture prey using specific kinematic and kinetic traits that change in size and morphology during postembryonic growth and sexual dimorphism influences these dynamics. Strike forces grow hyperallometrically with body weight; larger mantises show longer strike durations, slower joint angular velocities and increased tibia ...

Abstract 3D digital evaluation of the periodontal and peri‐implant tissue, including CBCT, intraoral scanning, optical surface scanning, and ultrasonography, is being used in the clinical arena with increasing frequency. Thus, to validate the utilization of 3D digital analysis for this purpose, a critical evaluation of the reliability of digital ...

ABSTRACT The Gollum Channel System is a land‐detached large‐scale canyon‐channel system situated offshore southwest Ireland on the Northeast Atlantic margin. The system has been considered inactive with downslope gravity flows since the last glacial period, but geophysical data in some of its branches do suggest Holocene activity.
