Within 48–60 hours after hatching they become mushroom-shaped with a pronounced apical cap partly enclosing a posterior trunk. The cells covering the apical cap are large and cleavage arrested. On the apical cap there is a prominent prototrochal band of compound cilia and an apical ciliary tuft and the trunk bears a terminal ciliary band (telotroch). Obscured by the apical cap, a ciliary band originates in the stomodaeal pore and surrounds the trunk.

Apical dominance is therefore most likely adaptive. Typically, the end of a shoot contains an apical bud, which is the location where shoot growth occurs. The apical bud produces a hormone, auxin, (IAA) that inhibits growth of the lateral buds further down on the stem towards the axillary bud. It was first discovered in 1934 that the plant hormone auxin likely regulates apical dominance.
The molecular picture of apical constriction is most complete for Drosophila. During Drosophila gastrulation, apical constriction of midline cells initiates invagination to create the ventral furrow. Like in Xenopus, actomyosin contractility plays a major role in constricting the apical side of the cell. The constricting cells have an actin meshwork directly beneath the apical membrane as well as circumferential actin belts lining the adherens junctions between cells.
The apical area is ochreous, with a short violet-white dash terminating in the black apical dot. The hindwings are grey.Meyrick, Edward (1916–1923). Exotic Microlepidoptera.
Conversely, in the absence of any of Lgl, Dlg or Scrib, the apical determinants spread into the former baso-lateral domain. Thus, the two determinants behave as if they exert mutual repulsion upon one another. The third principle is directed exocytosis. Apical membrane proteins are trafficked from the Golgi to the apical, rather than baso-lateral, membrane because apical determinants serve to identify the correct destination for vesicle delivery.
The apical dendrites and basal dendrites possess a radial organization pattern as they extend from the soma. Proximal apical dendrites and basal dendrites have approximately the same density. Apical dendrites possess a larger average total dendritic length (6332 vs 5062 micrometres) and surface area (12629 vs 9404 square micrometres; neither includes spines). However, the number of terminal branches for both apical and basal dendrites appear to be similar.

If apical closure has not occurred within six months, the root canal is retreated again with the material of choice. Ideally, the tooth should demonstrate continued apical growth and closure or an apical stop. When closure is observed, the canal is filled with a root canal filling material known as gutta-percha.
The presence of an apical delta may make successful endodontic treatment less likely. The root tip is removed during apicoectomy to eliminate the apical delta and maximise the chance of successful healing. An apical constriction is often present. In immature teeth the root is not fully formed leading to an open apex.

There is also a dark streak from the costa beyond the middle to the apical spot and a small dark triangular apical spot, including a black apical dot partly edged with white. The hindwings are light grey.Exotic Microlepidoptera.
The length of the forewings is 10 mm. The apical and basal areas of the forewings are dark fuscous with a broad orange band between them and orange projecting into the apical area from the middle of the apical side of the band. The hindwings are dark fuscous., 1994: Systematics of the Neotropical moth family Dalceridae (Lepidoptera).
At the anterior and posterior ends of the larva are tufts of longer cilia (apical and caudal). The apical tuft originates from the apical organ, a sensory structure associated with the central nervous system. It is named after Johannes Peter Müller (1801-1858), a German physiologist who invented the plankton net, and first described larval forms of many phyla.
Dendritic spines are absent on the soma, while the number increases away from it. The typical apical dendrite in a rat has at least 3,000 dendritic spines. The average human apical dendrite is approximately twice the length of a rat's, so the number of dendritic spines present on a human apical dendrite could be as high as 6,000.
The hindwings are orange with brownish apical fascia and spot.
A fluid filtration method was used to test apical or coronal leakage. According to the results of this study, the smear (+) groups displayed higher apical and coronal leakage than those smear (-) groups for both root canal sealers. Apical leakage was significantly higher than coronal leakage for both root canal sealers used in this study. It was determined that that removal of the smear layer has a positive effect in reducing apical and coronal leakage for both AH26 and RoekoSeal root canal sealers.
During Xenopus gastrulation, bottle cells are located in the dorsal marginal zone and apically constrict inwards to initiate involution of the blastopore. In these cells, apical constriction occurs when actomyosin contractility folds the cell membrane to reduce the apical surface area. Endocytosis of the membrane at the apical side further reduces surface area. Active trafficking of these endocytosed vesicles along microtubule tracks is also believed to be important, since the depolymerization (but not stabilization) of microtubules reduces the extent of apical constriction.
The apical area is mostly whitish, weakly suffused with greyish fuscous. There are scattered blackish scales along the termen, around the apex and in the apical margin before the apex. The hindwings are greyish.Ruwensori Expedition.

The computerized fluid filtration method was used for evaluation of apical microleakage. The quantitative apical leakage of each tooth was measured after 2, 30, and 180 days. It was found that there was no difference between the groups after 2 days but removal of the smear layer caused significantly more apical microleakage than when the smear layer was left intact after 30 and 180 days. It was concluded that the apical microleakage of MTA is less when the smear layer is present than when it is absent.
Pulsed contractions of the actin meshwork are believed to be primarily responsible for reducing the apical surface area. In Drosophila, researchers have also pinpointed the molecules responsible for coordinating apical constriction in time. Folded Gastrulation (Fog), a secreted protein, and Concertina, a G alpha protein, are members of the same pathway that ensure that apical constriction is initiated in the right cells at the right time. The transmembrane protein T48 is part of a redundant pathway that is also needed for coordination of apical constriction.
However, the apical cells do contain organelles like large vacuoles and starch grains, like the angiosperm meristematic cells. Pteridophytes, like fern, on the other hand, do not possess a multicellular apical meristem. They possess a tetrahedral apical cell, which goes on to form the plant body. Any somatic mutation in this cell can lead to hereditary transmission of that mutation.
The costal third from the base to the apex is light golden- brown, in the apical part somewhat darker and reticulated with white. The dark part of the wing broadens slightly and gradually toward the apex and reaches to the apical third of the dorsal cilia. A narrow dark bronze line is found around the apical edge. The hindwings are light grey.
The outer costal spot is edged by a narrow white costal streak, a shining white apical line from the apical protrusion to apex, the cilia greyish ochreous around apex and paler towards dorsum. Hindwing shining: Pale grey, cilia pale greyish ochreous. Underside: forewing shining pale ochreous- grey. The white apical line is indistinctly visible and the hindwing shining pale grey.
Constriction of the apical side of cells in an epithelial layer generates enough force initiate invagination. In gastrulation, the apically constricting cells are known as bottle cells. The bottle shape results when constriction of the apical side of the cell squeezes the cytoplasm, thus expanding the basal side. Apical constriction plays a central role in important morphogenetic events in both invertebrates and vertebrates.
Two types of dendrites present on pyramidal cells are apical and basal dendrites. Apical dendrites are the most distal along the ascending trunk, and reside in layer 1. These distal apical dendrites receive synaptic input from related cortical as well as globally modulatory subcortical projections. Basal dendrites include shorter radially distributed dendrites which receive input from local pyramidal cells and interneurons.
Apical abscess associated with roots of a lower molar. Apical periodontitis is acute or chronic inflammation around the apex of a tooth caused by an immune response to bacteria within an infected pulp. It does not occur because of pulp necrosis, meaning that a tooth that tests as if it's alive (vital) may cause apical periodontitis, and a pulp which has become non-vital due to a sterile, non-infectious processes (such as trauma) may not cause any apical periodontitis. Bacterial cytotoxins reach the region around the roots of the tooth via the apical foramina and lateral canals, causing vasodilation, sensitization of nerves, osteolysis (bone resorption) and potentially abscess or cyst formation.

These features include a loss of apical microvilli such that the apical plasma membrane becomes flattened.SCHLAFKE, S., & ENDERS, A. C. (1975). Cellular basis of interaction between trophoblast and uterus at implantation. Biology of Reproduction, 12(1), 41-65.
It maintains the vitality of the surrounding cells. (PDL is heavily anastomosed). There are 3 principal sources of blood vessels which are apical vessels, perforating vessels and gingival vessels. Apical vessels originate from vessels that supply the pulp.
Simple experiments support this theory. When the apical bud is removed, the axillary buds are uninhibited, lateral growth increases, and plants become bushier. Applying auxin to the cut stem again inhibits lateral dominance. While cytokinin action in vascular plants is described as pleiotropic, this class of plant hormones specifically induces the transition from apical growth to growth via a three- faced apical cell in moss protonema.
The forewings are rich saffron yellow, lightest at base, gradually deeper saffron toward the apex.

The apical surface area decreases. In chicken embryos, while the neural plate increases in length and decreases in apical width, the thickness of the plate does not change drastically. As the neural plate progresses through the Hamburger- Hamilton stages, the plate thickens until about HH6-7, when the neural plate begins to fold into tube form. The apical surface area increases during neurulation, unlike amphibian embryos.

Also tuft cells, in comparison with enterocytes, do not have a terminal web at the base of apical microvilli. Other characteristics of tuft cells are: quite narrow apical membrane which cause the tuft cells to be viewed as pinched at the top, prominent microfilaments from actin which extend to the cell and finish just above the nucleus, vast but largely empty apical vesicles which make a tubulovesicular network, on the apical side of the cells’ nucleus is a Golgi apparatus, deficiency of rough endoplasmic reticulum and desmosomes with tight junction which fixes tuft cells to their neighbours. The shape of the tuft cell body varies and depends on the organ. Tuft cells in the intestine are cylindric and narrow at the apical and basal ends.
Apical dendrites from pyramidal cells in the external granular layer and more prominently the external pyramidal layer project into the molecular layer.

Some of the apical dendrites from the pyramidal cells in the cerebral cortex may be up to 10μm in diameter.Smith CUM.
Propidium iodide staining revealed that only the basal surface of the hook is of nuclear origin. These apical hooks are deployed in female reproductive tract (mechanism responsible involved the remodeling of actin filaments in the hook). Deployed apical hooks combine with apical hooks and flagella of other spermatozoa.

It has been determined from electrophysiological data that excitatory synapses on proximal apical dendrites of prefrontal cortex pyramidal neurons serve to amplify excitatory post-synaptic potential (EPSP) signals generated in distal apical dendrites. This suggests that reduction in distal dendrite mass due to the stress hormone elevation may result in an increase in proximal apical dendrite complexity as the proximal apical dendrites attempt to offset the reduced distal apical dendrite signals. Serotonergic alterations and alterations in glutamate release in the prefrontal cortex indicate that the neurochemical mechanisms altering structure in both the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex are similar. The division of management between extrinsic and intrinsic inputs to the dendrites in the piriform cortex (mentioned above) is also seen to a lesser degree in the medial prefrontal cortex.
Further analysis showed that PRK2, a direct target of Rho, is required for the formation of apical junctions. Mutational variants of PRK2 were used to discover that although initial formation of pre-apical junctions isn't blocked, the maturation process into true apical junctions is prevented. Hall's research has had wide implications across human health and disease, particularly cancer. In addition, a generation of cell biologists was educated and trained under his supervision across two continents.
Some languages distinguish palatalized (alveolo-palatal) and non-palatalized (retroflex) postalveolar nasals and/or laterals. Some Australian languages distinguish four coronal nasals and laterals: laminal dental , apical alveolar , laminal postalveolar (palatalized) , and apical postalveolar (retroflex) . The nonstandard Malayalam dialects mentioned above have five acute (including four coronal) nasals: laminal dental , apical alveolar , laminal postalveolar (palatalized) , subapical palatal (retroflex) , and dorsal palatal (palatalized) (in addition to labial and velar ). Standard Malayalam lacks the laminal palatalized postalveolar.
An apical dendrite is a dendrite that emerges from the apex of a pyramidal cell. Apical dendrites are one of two primary categories of dendrites, and they distinguish the pyramidal cells from spiny stellate cells in the cortices. Pyramidal cells are found in the prefrontal cortex, the hippocampus, the entorhinal cortex, the olfactory cortex, and other areas. Dendrite arbors formed by apical dendrites are the means by which synaptic inputs into a cell are integrated.
It is uniaxial with an apical cell and whorled cells coming from the axial towards the exterior of the algae. The pith is compacted with apical cells and the epidermis is formed by rounded whorled cells. G. amansii is being studied as a cheap biofuel.
In botany, sympodial growth occurs when the apical meristem is terminated and growth is continued by one or more lateral meristems, which repeat the process. The apical meristem may be consumed to make an inflorescence or other determinate structure, or it may be aborted.

The entire costal edge and apical part of the wing is mottled with dark brown, in which the ground colour appears as small dots and dashes, especially in the apical part. Before the middle of the costa, a dark brown, nearly black, inwardly oblique streak is found, reaching to the fold. From just beyond the middle of the costa runs a broader blackish brown fascia parallel with the first costal streak, but reaching to the costal edge. At apical third is a third dark streak parallel to the other two, but generally more or less diffused into the dark apical part of the wing.
Once adequate height and length is achieved by the stems and roots, they begin to thicken to support the plant. On the shoots, these growing tips of the plant are called apical buds. The apical meristem (or tip) produces the growth hormone auxin, which not only promotes cell division, but also diffuses downwards and inhibits the development of lateral bud growth that otherwise competes with the apical tip for light and nutrients. Removing the apical tip and its suppressive hormone lets lower, dormant lateral buds develop, and the buds between the leaf stalk and stem produce new shoots that compete to become lead growth.
In similar models, researchers have shown that epithelial cells can self-assemble into a rich set of robust biological shapes. In the yeast saccharomyces cerevisiae, there is genetic evidence that Cdc42 is subject to positive feedback of this kind and can spontaneously polarize, even in the absence of an external cue. In the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, Cdc42 is recruited by the aPKC complex and then promotes the apical localization of the aPKC complex in a probable positive feedback loop. Thus, in the absence of Cdc42 or the aPKC complex, apical determinants cannot be maintained at the apical membrane and consequently, apical identity and polarity is lost.
The wingspan is .Head ferruginous-yellowish, collar paler. Antennal eyecaps yellow- whitish. Forewings dark fuscous, mixed or almost wholly suftused with pale ochreousyellowish ; a pale ochreous-yellowish oblique fascia beyond middle ; apical area beyond this dark fuscous, faintly purplish tinged ; apical cilia ochreous-white except at base.
Apical constriction mechanisms (red: filamentous actin. orange: myosin.) Apical constriction occurs primarily through the contraction of cytoskeletal elements. The specific mechanism depends on the species, the cell type, and the morphogenetic movement. Model organisms that have been studied include the frog Xenopus, and the fly Drosophila.
The apical third is fuscous, bisected by a pale transverse fascia at the apical fourth. The hindwings are pale grey basally shading to dark fuscous apically and with a golden sheen.J. Wash. Acad. Sci. 37 : 244 The larvae feed on Quercus species of the red oak group.

Saunders and Gasseling published data in the Journal of Experimental Biology in 1948, showing that reference marks inserted near the rim of the apical border of the wing bud are dispersed throughout the whole forearm of the wing. This led them to believe that the apical ectoderm may play a role in forming parts of the wing. To test this, they removed apical ectoderm from wing buds which yielded deformed wings. When they removed dorsal ectoderm, normal wings formed.
The forewings of the males are silvery grey, but dark grey in females.

Takayama helix is a species of dinoflagellates with sigmoid apical grooves first found in Tasmanian and South African waters. It contains fucoxanthin and its derivatives as its main accessory pigments. Takayama helix has an apical groove being practically straight while still clearly bent. It possesses one ventral pore.
The apical plasma membrane displays compositional variations that change at the time of implantation. The apical domain is specialized for the initial interaction with the embryo as well as controlling secretory and absorptive processes including endocytosis and pinocytosis. The apical surface of the uterine epithelial cells is covered with microvilli that are under hormonal control and vary in length and number with the oestrous cycle and during pregnancy. A hormonally dependent glycocalyx is found outside the microvilliBucci, M., & Murphy, C. R. (2001).
Neural tube cells in Xenopus apically constrict during the initial invagination as well as during hingepoint folding. Here, the mechanism depends upon the protein Shroom3, which is sufficient to drive apical constriction. Because Shroom3 is an actin- binding protein and accumulates on the apical side, the most likely mechanism is that Shroom3 aggregates the actin meshwork, generating a squeezing force. Ectopic Shroom3 has been shown to be sufficient to induce apical constriction, but only in cells with apico-basal polarity.
The larva is greenish with some fuscous marks on the head and the cervical shield. It feeds beneath a web on apical parts of the leaf of the host plant. The leaf is partially eaten on a transverse line on the lower side. The apical portion then bends down and this is the part on which the larva feeds, eating off the under surface and leaving the extreme apical portion rolled and spun together for a retreat which eventually becomes filled with frass.
Often the character of the pain is the differentiator between dental and non-dental pain. Irreversible pulpitis progresses to pulp necrosis, wherein the nerves are non-functional, and a pain-free period following the severe pain of irreversible pulpitis may be experienced. However, it is common for irreversible pulpitis to progress to apical periodontitis, including an acute apical abscess, without treatment. As irreversible pulpitis generates an apical abscess, the character of the toothache may simply change without any pain-free period.
The forewings are shining pale whitish ochreous with the apical third ochreous orange, anteriorly suffused. There is some grey suffusion on the dorsum before the tornus and on the middle of the termen and a large round black apical dot, edged with white in the cilia, which is otherwise whitish ochreous, around the apex with a grey median line. The hindwings are whitish grey, with the apex slightly tinged with orange and a blackish apical dot.Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society.
The ascus is uni-tunicated with an invagination on the apical side and an apical ring that is barely visible. A. ampullaceum spores begin their cycle as a single cell with a spherical body and a cylindrical apical end.

The cells contained frequent desmosomal connections and the apical aspects of the cells were noted to interdigitate extensively.
Acute apical periodontitis features include moderate to severe pain, usually stimulated by touch and pressure and may also include spontaneous pain. The chronic form of the condition can be asymptomatic but may also include pain from surrounding tissues when stimulated. Apical abscess is an extension of apical periodontitis where the bacteria have infiltrated the peri radicular tissues and are causing a severe inflammatory response; there is also an acute and chronic form of this condition. An acute apical abscess can cause facial swelling and can cause other systemic consequences such as a high temperature and feelings of malaise. In some cases this condition can be life-threatening when the inflammation compromises the airway; this is termed Ludwig’s Angina.
When apical meristems (apical buds) are continually removed, the shape of a tree or shrub can be manipulated remarkably, because newer, uninhibited, branches grow en masse almost anywhere on the tree or shrub. Topiary garden, Beckley Park manor, UK When the apical bud is removed, the lowered IAA concentration allows the lateral buds to grow and produce new shoots, which compete to become the lead growth. Pruning techniques such as coppicing and pollarding make use of this natural response to curtail direct plant growth and produce a desired shape, size, and/or productivity level for the plant. The principle of apical dominance is manipulated for espalier creation, hedge building, or artistic sculptures called topiary.
The Apical Meristem is of two types; the shoot apical meristem (SAM) gives rise to organs like the leaves and flowers, while the root apical meristem (RAM) provides the meristematic cells for the future root growth. SAM and RAM cells divide rapidly and are considered indeterminate, in that they do not possess any defined end status. In that sense, the meristematic cells are frequently compared to the stem cells in animals, which have an analogous behavior and function. Within plants SAM cells play a major role in the overall growth and development, this is due to the fact that all cells making up the major parts of the plant come from the shoot apical meristem (SAM).
The forewings are glossy white, with a narrow black costal streak and a brownish oblique fascia running from just before the apical one-fourth of the costa to the apical one- third of the termen. There is a brownish triangular mark on the costa from just beyond the apical one-fourth to before the apex, cut by an inwardly oblique strigula. There is also a black bar at the apex and a dark brownish circular mark on the tornus, as well as two narrow brownish streaks running from the apical black bar to above and beneath the margins of the brownish tornal mark. The hindwings are pale greyish brown, suffused with greyish brown on the costa and termen.

The hindwings are grey, in males suffused blackish towards the base.Meyrick, Edward (1916–1923). Exotic Microlepidoptera.
Meristematic tissues contain cells that continue to grow and differentiate throughout the plant's lifetime. Shoot apical meristem gives rise to flowers and leaves while root apical meristem grows into roots. These components are crucial to general plant growth and are the harbingers of development. Meristematic tissue apparently contains characteristic epigenetic modifications.
The wingspan is 27–35 mm. The forewing ground colour is purplish fuscous tinged with olive grey. The stigmata are fused together forming a large white patch and there is a small white apical blotch. The subterminal line is white in colour and irregular wavy and joins the apical white stain.

Standard Modern Greek, which has apical , lacked both processes. The Germanic-speaking regions that did not have either phenomena have normally preserved the apical , that is, Icelandic, Dutch and many Scandinavian lects. It also reached modern times in Low German, but this language has largely been replaced by Standard German. The main Romance language to preserve the sound, Castilian Spanish, is exceptional in that it had both events that produced and , and preserved the apical S at the expense of both, that were shifted farther away.
The apex of the cell is hemispherical and bonnet-shaped, with an apical groove spiralling around the tip 2.5 times in an anti-clockwise direction, and a bill-like protuberance sticking out to point towards either the sinistro-lateral (T. teredo) or dorsal (T. robustum) side of the cell, depending on the species. This protuberance consists of six or seven thin, converging apical ribs, originating from the basis of the apical groove and not connected to the longitudinal ribs that stretch the length of the episome.
The E. zodiacus cell has an average size between 10-61 µm along the apical axis. The cell wall is silicified, as is characteristic of all diatoms. The thickness of this cell wall changes with season. Cells are flattened and interlock by two apical elevations (horns) to form long curved colony formations.
This is often done by orchardists for young trees. Occasionally, strong apical dominance is advantageous, as in the "Ballerina" apple trees. These trees are intended to be grown in small gardens, and their strong apical dominance combined with a dwarfing rootstock gives a compact narrow tree with very short fruiting side branches.
Lycus trabeatus reaches a length of about . The pronotum has a black center and orange edges. The elytra are black at their bases, on the apical lobes, and sometimes along the dilated edges. Elytra are variable in shape, from widely expanded with a constriction towards the apical lobe, to intermediate or slender.

The wings are transparent, and palely tinted with yellow at the extreme base. The abdomen in the male is blood-red, tapered from base to end, and marked with black. Segment 1 is black, with its apical border narrowly red. Segment 2 has its base broadly black and apical border less so.
Epithelia are polar in nature, i.e., they have an apical or mucosal side and a basolateral or serosal side. An Ussing chamber can isolate the apical side from the basolateral side. The two half chambers are filled with equal amounts of symmetrical Ringer solution to remove chemical, mechanical or electrical driving forces.
Development of an apical dendrite theory of cognition, attention, and consciousness. A series of papers explored the hypothesis that the apical dendrite is not "just another dendrite" but has its own special functions (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2007). The hypothesis that the apical dendrite resonates was illustrated informally by LaBerge and his daughter, Anne La Berge in three performances of a work entitled Resonant Dendrites, (2006, 2007, 2009), which featured film, narrative voice samples and music. A formal description of a theory of electric resonance in apical dendrites appeared in an article by Kasevich & LaBerge (2010), which shows how an apical dendrite can fine tune its own membrane oscillations to a specific peak frequency, and narrow the width of the resonance curve around this peak to less than 1 Hz. This refinement enables its associated cortical circuit to generate a specific resonant ("carrier") frequency by which the circuit can separate its signaling from that of other circuits.
The hindwings are white with a narrow black basal patch and there is a large subtriangular chocolate brown apical patch.

The termen is brownish and the dorso-median area is cream. The hindwings are pale orange with brownish apical markings.
The EPSPs that converge on the pyramidal neurons through direct afferent fibers ending in the upper part of the apical dendrites cause a flow of charged ions (a current) between points at different potentials within and outside neurons. The positive ions then enter the cell following concentration and electrical charge gradient and propagate to the rest of the neuron. EPSPs from the distal apical dendrites create a current starting from the apical part nearest to the synapse (where the magnitude is greater) toward the cell body because the resistance to this flow is less. The current perpendicular (or radial) to the apical dendrite is accompanied by a magnetic field that propagates orthogonally (or tangentially) to the current along the extracellular side of the cell membrane.
These findings have provided evidence supporting the theory that actin filaments located in the apical region are highly dynamic and are the site of vesicle targeting and fusing events. Experimentation of etiolated hypocotyl cells as well as BY-2 suspension cells show that highly dynamic actin filaments produced from the apical membrane can either be turned over by filament severing and depolarizing events, or they can move from the apex to the apical flank, resulting in decreased accumulation of actin filaments in the apical region of the pollen tube. Experimentation of actin filament dynamics in the shank region were also conducted with the use of GFP. Findings indicated that maximum filament length in this region significantly increased, and the severing frequency significantly decreased.
The forewings are grayish white with numerous specks and mottlings of grayish fuscous, especially on the costal and apical parts of the wing. There are two grayish-fuscous discal dots, each followed by some ocherous scales. There is a row of diffuse grayish-fuscous spots around the apical margin. The hindwings are whitish gray.
The forewings are white with a rather thick light fuscous streak throughout, speckled dark fuscous, narrow towards base. There is a light fuscous tornal spot, more or less edged anteriorly with black irroration. There is also a pre-apical spot of fuscous and black speckling, extended into the apical projection. The hindwings are whitish-grey.
The tips of the hairs on the head are simple or frayed, and overall the hairs measure . Both antennae have a subcone and three apical sensilla that resemble a spinule. The mandibles are sub-triangular with a curved apex. The apical and subapical teeth are sharp and short, but the proximal tooth is blunt.
The size difference between the apical and subapical tooth is much greater than in other species. Many socially parasitic ant species have falcate mandibles associated with their ability to attack and subdue hosts. Perhaps the long apical tooth of M. reina is such an adaptation, strengthening the conjecture that it may be a social parasite.
The forewing colour consists of brownish orange intermixed with dark-brown scales mostly along the costal margin and apical one-third. There are two discal spots, one near the base and one near the apical end. The marginal scales are dark brown. The hindwings are pale brown, with elongate scales on the basal two-thirds.
In Bryopsida the leafy moss plant (q. v. "Thallus") is called gametophore. It is the adult form of the haploid gametophyte and develops from the juvenile form, the protonema, under the influence of phytohormones (mainly cytokinins). Whereas the filamentous protonema grows by apical cell division, the gametophore grows by division of three faced apical cells.
Additionally, sulfatide is also found in the glandular stomach epithelium and in the apical membranes of the distal kidney tubuli where Myelin and lymphocyte protein (MAL) is expressed. MAL forms complexes with sulfatide and other glycosphingolipids, and these complexes have been shown to play a role in apical sorting and stabilization of sphingoglycolipid enriched areas.
Distances between successive branch points are shorter for basal dendrites. The basal dendrite however has approximately 3 fold fewer endings per primary dendrite. This and the lower maximum branch order suggest lower complexity than apical dendritic trees. Basal dendrites have a shorter distance to the tips and a more restricted range than apical dendrites.
Hemiamyloidity occurs in many groups of ascomycetes. In most members of Lecanorales and Ostropales, whether lichenized or not, the entire outer ascus wall layer reacts hemiamyloid. Roughly 20% of Helotiales have hemiamyloid] ascus apical rings compared to estimated 50% with euamyloid apical rings. In Pezizomycetes and different classes of pyrenomycetes hemiamyloid reactions are rare.
The impedance type apex locators have been demonstrated to be 80 to 95% accurate in identifying the apical foramen. Therefore after obtaining a reading, 1 to 2 mm is subtracted as the corrected working length. Electronic apex locators have been shown to be more accurate than radiography when determining the position of the apical foramen.
The forewings are ochreous yellow, darkened towards the apical and costal margins. There are two parallel oblique fasciae, one dark fuscous and running from the middle of the costa toward the disc, and another white fascia running from the apical one-third of the costa to the middle of the termen. There is a white outwards-oblique strigula from the tornus to the disc and there are three minute white dots placed on the apical one-third of the costa and three similar dots on the termen. The hindwings are greyish fuscous.
Following fertilization, the zygote and endosperm are present within the ovule, as seen in stage I of the illustration on this page. Then the zygote undergoes an asymmetric transverse cell division that gives rise to two cells - a small apical cell resting above a large basal cell. These two cells are very different, and give rise to different structures, establishing polarity in the embryo. ;apical cell:The small apical cell is on the top and contains most of the cytoplasm, the aqueous substance found within cells, from the original zygote.
The forewings are cupreous black, but shining cupreous violet between the plica and dorsum and silver on the basal one-seventh. There are three costal silver strigulae running in parallel with each other on the median one-third. Three similar strigulae are found in the basal half of the dorsum and a silver blotch occupies the apical one-eighths of the forewing. There are also two white blotches, one at the apical one-fourth of the costa and the other at the apical two-fifths of the dorsum.
Biomass regrowth following herbivory is often reported as an indicator of tolerance and plant response after apical meristem damage (AMD) is one of the most heavily studied mechanisms of tolerance (Tiffin 2000; Suwa and Maherali 2008; Wise and Abrahamson 2008). Meristems are sites of rapid cell divisions and so have higher nutrition than most other tissues on the plants . Damage to apical meristems of plants may release it from apical dominance, activating the growth of axillary meristems which increases branching (Trumble et al. 1993; Wise and Abrahamson 2008).
Pyramidal cells are the majority class of cells in the neocortex. They have high density of dendritic spines, prominent apical dendrites, and axons that project out of the cortex as well as locally within it. Soma for these appear in all layers except I. Spiny stellate cells are distinguished from pyramidal cells here by the absence of the apical dendrite and the fact that their axons also do not leave the cortex. These cells are thought to begin as pyramidal neurons and then retract their apical dendrites and axons.
This polarization permanently changes the morphology of these cells, and starts the differentiation process. After this, the 8-cell blastomere mass begins to compact by forming tight junctions between themselves, and cytosolic components of the cell accumulate in the apical region while the nucleus of each cell moves to the basal region. The adhesive lateral junction is then formed, and the blastomere is flattened to establish the apical cortical domain. Once the transition begins to a 16-cell mass, the apical cortical domain disappears, but elements of polarity are preserved.
In addition to the single apical flagellum surrounded by actin-filled microvilli that characterizes choanoflagellates, the internal organization of organelles in the cytoplasm is constant. A flagellar basal body sits at the base of the apical flagellum, and a second, non-flagellar basal body rests at a right angle to the flagellar base. The nucleus occupies an apical-to-central position in the cell, and food vacuoles are positioned in the basal region of the cytoplasm. Additionally, the cell body of many choanoflagellates is surrounded by a distinguishing extracellular matrix or periplast.
The pain associated with pulp necrosis is often described as spontaneous. Hot temperatures are reported to have exacerbating factors, and cold temperatures are said to soothe this pain. In some cases, the pain presents as a long dull ache as this is due to necrosis of the apical nerves being the last part of the pulp to necrose. Therefore the pain is from the apical nerves, which have residual vitality remaining when the majority of the pulp is necrosed due to the supply of blood to the more medial parts of the apical nerve.
It is a point of interest in endodontics, as it is considered necessary to thoroughly chemomechanically debride the pulp space to remove all necrotic tissue and minimise bacterial load in the pulp space. Ideally this debridement would terminate exactly at the apical foramen. In reality determining the exact position of the apical foramen is problematic, requiring radiography and/or use of an electronic apex locator to produce a refined estimate. A tooth may have multiple small accessory canals in the root apex area forming an apical delta which can complicate the endodontic problem.
There are a number of active biologic mediators that have been implicated in promoting apical resorption. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are endogenous zinc-dependent catabolic enzymes, are primarily responsible for the degradation of much of the tissue matrices built on such architecturally important substances as collagen and proteoglycan core proteins. Their biologic activities have been extensively researched and reviewed, and their importance in the pathogenesis of apical periodontitis is obvious. Furthermore, concentrations of IgG antibodies have been found to be nearly five times higher in lesions of apical periodontitis than in uninflamed oral mucosa.
Prostaglandins, specifically PGE2 and PGI2, are important in inflammation and have been implicated in promoting apical resorption. This is because neutrophils, which are rich sources of PGE2, are present when the majority of rapid bone loss occurs during the initial stages of apical periodontitis. It has been illustrated clinically that parenteral administration of indomethacin, an inhibitor of cyclooxygenase, can act to suppress resorption of apical hard tissue. The predominant mechanism of bone resorption in a periapical lesion, as in the rest of the body, is the performed by osteoclasts.
Cytokinins counter the apical dominance induced by auxins; in conjunction with ethylene, they promote abscission of leaves, flower parts, and fruits.

May be terminal (apical), subapical, lateral, gynobasic, or subgynobasic. Terminal (apical) style position refers to attachment at the apex of the ovary and is the commonest pattern. In the subapical pattern the style arises to the side slightly below the apex. a lateral style arises from the side of the ovary and is found in Rosaceae.
There is a large oblique quadrangular yellowish white spot at the basal third, reaching with one corner down over the fold. A faint and ill- defined irregular transverse whitish line is found at the apical third between the darker basal and the lighter apical part of the wing. The hindwings are dark fuscous. The larvae feed on Acacia farnesiana.
The ascus tip possesses a thick, double-apical ring and lacks a sub-apical globulus. Paraphyses, erect filament-like structures, appear longer than asci. The ascospores contained within the asci are arranged in series of 2-3. In immature asci, the spores are initially hyaline (colourless), single-celled, cylindrical, vermiform (worm-like), slightly sigmoid, and smooth.
Aided by this new technology, the scientists were able to declare variations in the path of the apical groove of the organism (found on the flagellar apparatus). Since the apical groove varies among species, the scientists used it to indicate differences between the unarmored flagellates. Akashiwo was one of four new genera that was redefined using the analysis.
The pathophysiology of cleft hand is thought to be a result of a wedge-shaped defect of the apical ectoderm of the limb bud (AER: apical ectodermal ridge). Polydactyly, syndactyly and cleft hand can occur within the same hand, therefore some investigators suggest that these entities occur from the same mechanism. This mechanism is not yet defined.
The ground color of the forewings is silvery gray with buff on the apical one third and becoming red brown on the apical center, except for the fuscous borders to all markings. The hindwings are shining fuscous. Adults have been recorded in January.John B. Heppner (1981) Revision of the New Genus Diploschizia (Lepidoptera: Glyphipterigidae) for North America.

Hindwings black-brown, with two orange spots beyond lower angle of cell and two spots towards anal angle. Ventral side of forewings is black with orange around costa and inner margin.
The second principle is segregation of polarity determinants. The sharp distinction between apical and baso-lateral domains is maintained by an active mechanism that prevents mixing. The nature of this mechanism is not known, but it clearly depends on the polarity determinants. In the absence of the aPKC complex, the baso-lateral determinants spread into the former apical domain.
However, that is potentially problematic in that not all alveolar retracted sibilants are apical (see below), and not all apical alveolar sibilants are retracted. The ad hoc non-IPA symbols and are often used in the linguistic literature even when IPA symbols are used for other sounds, but is a common transcription of the retroflex sibilant .
Ionocytes have an elaborate intracellular tubular system, continuous with the basolateral membrane (facing blood). The apical side (facing the environment) is typically invaginated below the surrounding pavement cells, forming apical crypts. Leaky paracellular pathways exist between the neighbouring ionocytes. Ionocytes of marine teleosts, such as the southern bluefin tuna, employ specific transport mechanisms to excrete salt.
Females show some differences compared with males. The general rule is, the males have reddish yellow abdomen marked with black whereas the females lack the reddish wash in abdomen. The males have golden yellow patch on base of hindwings and narrow apical brown spot at the hind border of wings. The females lack apical brown patches in wings.
Medicament dressing was placed and intracanal bleeding was evoked. Kloroperka obturation placed coronal to the formed blood clot. This study aimed to evaluate the role of the apical blood clot in the healing of apical periodontitis and pulp repair. Patients were followed from a time period of 17 days to 3.5 years and the treated teeth were then extracted.

There are a plethora of ways to diagnose pulp necrosis in a tooth. The diagnosis of pulp necrosis can be based on the following observations: negative vitality, a periapical radiolucency, a grey tooth discoloration and even peri-apical lesions. This altered translucency in the tooth is due to disruption and cutting off of the apical neurovascular blood supply.
Tripods and tetrapods are very abundant. The tripods are true tripods. Tetrapods are similar to tripods in that they also possess stout actines and a raised centre. However, they have developed a fourth, apical, actine, which is shorter than the facial ones; it is conical and differs from the apical actine of the tetractines in that it is smooth.
There are three equidistant, blackish, costal spots, one near the base, one before the middle, and one at the apical third. A central, longitudinal, black streak is edged on both sides with ochreous and is interrupted at the apical fourth by a transverse streak of tufted whitish scales. The hindwings are dark grey.Proc. U.S. Nat. Mus.

AQP2 is found in the apical cell membranes of the kidney's collecting duct principal cells and in intracellular vesicles located throughout the cell.
Once these contacts dissolve, the cell, due to its apical-base polarity, moves into the subaortic space and consequently colonises other hematopoietic organs.
The granule cells only have apical dendrites in the rat. But in the monkey and human, many granule cells also have basal dendrites.

Research supports the hypothesis that the ciliated larvae in cnidarians and bilaterians share an ancient and common origin.Larval body patterning and apical organs are conserved in animal evolution The larvae's apical organ is involved in the formation of the nervous system.Larval nervous systems: true larval and precocious adult The aboral organ of comb jellies is not homologous with the apical organ in other animals, and the formation of their nervous system has therefore a different embryonic origin.Early animal evolution: a morphologist's view Ctenophore nerve cells and nervous system have different biochemistry as compared to other animals.
In this way, retroflex articulations can occur in several different locations on the roof of the mouth including alveolar, post-alveolar, and palatal regions. If the underside of the tongue tip makes contact with the roof of the mouth, it is sub-apical though apical post-alveolar sounds are also described as retroflex. Typical examples of sub-apical retroflex stops are commonly found in Dravidian languages, and in some languages indigenous to the southwest United States the contrastive difference between dental and alveolar stops is a slight retroflexion of the alveolar stop. Acoustically, retroflexion tends to affect the higher formants.

Basolateral membrane is a compound phrase referring to the terms "basal (base) membrane" and "lateral (side) membrane", which, especially in epithelial cells, are identical in composition and activity. Proteins (such as ion channels and pumps) are free to move from the basal to the lateral surface of the cell or vice versa in accordance with the fluid mosaic model. Tight junctions join epithelial cells near their apical surface to prevent the migration of proteins from the basolateral membrane to the apical membrane. The basal and lateral surfaces thus remain roughly equivalent to one another, yet distinct from the apical surface.
Electrical measurements and predictions validate the cylinder cross-section model. In the CA3, the temporoammonic (TA), commissural (COM), associational (ASSOC), and mossy fiber (MF) afferents all make excitatory glutamatergic (Glu) synapses on pyramidal cell dendrites (both apical and basal). Since fast signals occurring in the basilar and proximal apical dendrites are transferred to the soma with at least a 20–25% efficiency, synapses in these dendrites each contribute more to the neuronal activation than distal apical synapses. In contrast, only slow signals from the distal dendrites are efficiently transferred to the soma, suggesting a modulatory role on the resting potential of the cell.
For example, formin AtFH5 has been identified as a major regulator of actin filament nucleation, specifically for actin filaments synthesized from the apical membrane of the pollen tube. Genetic knockouts of AtFH5 resulted in a decreased abundance of actin filaments in both apical and subapical regions of the pollen tube, thereby providing more evidence to support the theory that AtFH5 nucleates actin filament assembly in apical and subapical regions of the pollen tube. Class I formin AtFH3 is another actin nucleation factor. AtFH3 nucleates actin filament assembly of the longitudinal actin cables located in the shank region of the pollen tube.
The wingspan is 16–18 mm. The forewings are white, overlaid with dark and light grey on the dorsal half, the costal half mostly white and the base of the costal edge and a short streak at the costal fourth black. There is a small black streak on the costa at the apical third and a prominent, oval black spot at the end of the cell, followed by a very irregular and inconspicuous blackish zigzag line across the wing. At the apical fourth is a narrow white transverse fascia and around the apical and terminal edges a marginal series of blackish brown dots.
A common clinical sign associated with the histopathology will be varying levels of suppuration and purulence. Following the spread of local inflammation, chemical mediators such as IL-8, IL-6 and IL-1 are released from necrotic tissues leading to further inflammation and odema, which advances to total necrosis of the pulp. Further stages of destruction of pulp necrosis often leads to periapical pathosis, causing bone resorption (visible on radiographs) following bacterial invasion. The apical periodontal ligament (PDL) space widens and becomes continuous with apical radiolucency; the lamina dura of the apical area will also be lost.
Marsupiobothrium gobelinus is a species of tapeworms with an unknown taxonomic affinity. It can easily be distinguished from the other members of its family by its bothridial peduncles, longer in comparison to other family members. Its lacks arcuate cylindrical pads on the posterior bothridial margins. The tapeworm has a marginal, distinct apical scolex rather than a submarginal, diffuse apical sucker on each bothridium.
The three domains of the extracellular portion of GCPII—the protease, apical and C-terminal domains—collaborate in substrate recognition. The protease domain is a central seven-stranded mixed β-sheet. The β-sheet is flanked by 10 α-helices. The apical domain is located between the first and the second strands of the central β-sheet of the protease domain.
The underside is uniformly white, with apical area and termen broadly suffused with brown. The hindwings are black, the apical area white and extending along the costa to near the base and to the middle. There seem to be two generations per year with adults on wing in November and December and again in April and May. The larvae feed on Litsea species.
Auxin is predominantly produced in the growing shoot apex and is transported throughout the plant via the phloem and diffuses into lateral buds which prevents elongation. When the apical bud is removed, the lowered IAA concentration allows the lateral buds to grow and produce new shoots, which compete to become the lead growth. Weeping larch showing growth habit lacking apical dominance.
Often, the details of parentage are not important elements of the clan tradition. Non-human apical ancestors are called totems. Examples of clans are found in Chechen, Chinese, Irish, Japanese, Polish, Scottish, Tlingit, and Somali societies. A phratry is a descent group composed of two or more clans each of whose apical ancestors are descended from a further common ancestor.
Laminal, 17. Apical, 18. Sub-apical Articulation is the process by which the joint product of the vibrator and the resonators is shaped into recognizable speech sounds through the muscular adjustments and movements of the speech organs. These adjustments and movements of the articulators result in verbal communication and thus form the essential difference between the human voice and other musical instruments.
It is shown to be sufficient and necessary for apical RNA transport in microinjection assays and transgenic reporters. Indeed, deletion of WLE3 in an otherwise full-length wg 3'UTR completely abolishes apical localization. However, a minimal WLE3 monomer by itself shows weak activity on its own. The incomplete activity of a single WLE3 element indicates a requirement for additional elements or sequences.
Doratopteryx xanthomelas is a moth in the Himantopteridae family. It was described by Walter Rothschild and Karl Jordan in 1903. It is found in Angola. The body and wings are ochreous orange, the forewing from apical third of cell to the apex and hindwing from the apical fourth of the wider proximal part of wing to the tip of the tail black.
Segment 8 has a thin apico-lateral blue spot. Segment 9 has a very large lateral spot of blue on each side which may get pruinosed to form an apical ring in adults. Segment 10 also has a blue spot on each side, get pruinosed to form an apical ring in adults. Anal appendages are pale yellow with black on apices.
Karenia are naked, flat, unicellular, photosynthetic cells that are quite pleomorphic: size tends to range from about 20–90 um. The cell contains a straight apical groove, and differences in apical grooves (acrobases) are often used to distinguish between species. Thecal plates are not present. The cell body can be divided into an episome and a hyposome like other dinoflagellates.
Two stages in the constriction of apical surfaces (blue) of a pair of cells in C. elegans.Apical constriction is the process in which contraction of the apical side of a cell causes the cell to take on a wedged shape. Generally, this shape change is coordinated across many cells of an epithelial layer, generating forces that can bend or fold the cell sheet.
Segment 3 is with a narrow mid-dorsal stripe in green to yellow. The apical third of the segment is black, the medial third except on mid-dorsum bright reddish-brown. Segments 4 to 6 are similar to 3; but the middle third of all segments is entirely reddish-brown. Segment 7 has basal two-thirds citron-yellow and apical third black.
Otherwise, alveolars are typically called taps, and other articulations are called flaps. No language has been confirmed to contrast a tap and a flap at the same place of articulation. However, such a distinction has been claimed for Norwegian in which the alveolar apical tap and the post- alveolar/retroflex apical flap have the same place of articulation for some speakers.Moen et al.
The forewings are pale brownish ochreous, more or less suffusedly irrorated (sprinkled) with dark grey, and the apical three-fifths irregularly suffused with dark brown. There are spots of blackish irroration in the disc beyond the middle and at two-fifths, as well as a small blackish apical spot, edged anteriorly with whitish suffusion. The hindwings are dark grey.Meyrick, Edward (1916–1923).
Segment 1 of the abdomen is entirely black. Segment 2 is turquoise-blue, with a mid-dorsal transverse mark shaped like a sea-gull in flight. Segment 3 has its basal half turquoise-blue and apical half black, with a small mid-dorsal spot on blue. Segments 4 to 8 are with apical half black and pale reddish-brown at base.
Data suggests that proximal apical and basal dendrites are more compressed but offer a wider local range of activity than distal apical dendrites. In CA3 neurons the inputs are stratified and run in bands parallel to the cell body layer. Dendritic attenuation of synaptic current is described by an exponential relationship. The closer to the body the dendrite, the higher the EPSP amplitude.
Journal of Neurobiology. 2001;49:245–253. Apical dendrites are studied in many ways. In cellular analysis, the electrical properties of the dendrite are studied using stimulus responses. A single surface shock of the cerebral cortex induces a 10–20 ms negative potential, a manifestation of the summed excitatory post-synaptic potentials (EPSPs) evoked in the distal portions of the apical dendrite.
Merozoites use the apicomplexan invasion organelles (apical complex, pellicle and surface coat) to recognize and enter the host erythrocyte (red blood cell). The parasite first binds to the erythrocyte in a random orientation. It then reorients such that the apical complex is in proximity to the erythrocyte membrane. The parasite forms a parasitophorous vacuole, to allow for its development inside the erythrocyte.
There are two large conspicuous black costal spots, one at the basal third outwardly oblique, and the other at the apical third inwardly oblique, both reaching the middle of the wing. The extreme apical part of the wing is dusted with black. The hindwings are light ochreous fuscous. The larvae feed on Antennaria, Anaphilis and Gnaphalium species, as well as Monarda fistulosa.
This protein is expressed in the canalicular (apical) part of the hepatocyte and functions in biliary transport. Substrates include anticancer drugs such as vinblastine; therefore, this protein appears to contribute to drug resistance in mammalian cells. MRP2 is also expressed in the apical membrane of proximal renal tubule endothelial cells where they are involved in the excretion of small organic anions.
This altered translucency in the tooth is due to disruption and cutting off of the apical neurovascular blood supply. Sequelae of a necrotic pulp include acute apical periodontitis, dental abscess or radicular cyst and discolouration of the tooth. Tests for a necrotic pulp include: vitality testing using a thermal test or an electric pulp tester. Discolouration may be visually obvious, or more subtle.
When a tooth is displaced from its normal position as a result of dental trauma, it can result in pulp necrosis due to the apical blood supply being compromised. This might be due to displacement of the tooth through avulsion or luxation. Furthermore, if the tooth is severely damaged, it could lead to inflammation of the apical periodontal ligament, and subsequently pulp necrosis.
5 μm in diameter at the base. About 65% of the small tetractines have three rows of spines along the proximal portion of the distal half of the apical ray. The number of spines in each row ranges from two to five but is typically three or four. Their length often exceeds the diameter of the adjacent portion of the apical ray.

The forewings are dark violaceous brown with sparse black scales. The extreme dorsal base is purplish black, with a collection of purplish black scales at the basal third. There is a small round white dot at the end of the cell, which is black margined at both sides. The costal and apical edge are lighter brown, with five costal and six to eight smaller apical dots.
This condition has a rapid onset, is stimulated by touch and involves spontaneous pain. It is important to note that an apical abscess may drain through the periodontal pocket giving a false interpretation of periodontal abscess or a periodontal abscess may appear at the apex of the tooth giving a false interpretation of apical abscess; a tooth may also have both lesions at one point in time.
Apical germ pore is mushroom spore which has a pore at one end. Some spores have a hole in the cell wall where the first strand of germinating mycelium emerges. If the cell wall is divided from one end to the other, this is called a germ slit. Commonly the germ pore is at one end of the mushroom spore and is called an apical pore.
A lineage is a unilineal descent group that can demonstrate their common descent from a known apical ancestor. Unilineal lineages can be matrilineal or patrilineal, depending on whether they are traced through mothers or fathers, respectively. Whether matrilineal or patrilineal descent is considered most significant differs from culture to culture. A clan is generally a descent group claiming common descent from an apical ancestor.
The Great Lakes Entomologist 2.2 Web. 21 Sept. 2014. . The male is identified by its darkened apical flagellomeres in addition to its darkened dorsal surface of the apical flagellomeres that is common to other species of wasps. Northern females on the other hand are easily identified by the blackening of their entire bodies which may or may not have markings of other colors.Tibbetts, Elizabeth A. (2002).
Escherichia coli GroES has also been shown to bind ATP cooperatively, and with an affinity comparable to that of GroEL. Each GroEL subunit contains three structurally distinct domains: an apical, an intermediate and an equatorial domain. The apical domain contains the binding sites for both GroES and the unfolded protein substrate. The equatorial domain contains the ATP-binding site and most of the oligomeric contacts.
The forewing colour consists of brown and dark-brown scales intermixed with mostly pale brownish-orange scales from the base to the apical end of the discal cell. There is a single brown discal spot near the apical end of the discal cell and the marginal scales are dark brown. The hindwings are pale brown, the area posterior to the cubitus with elongate scales.
Apexification is indicated for immature permanent teeth that are non-vital with incompletely formed roots. The objective of this procedure is to induce root end closure (apexification) at the apices of immature roots through the formation of mineralized tissue. Apical closure can take various forms but in most cases, it appears to be irregular and aberrant. Along with apical closure, root development may or may not continue.
Kahurangi ground wētā females have a medium-length ovipositor. Male and females have fore tibiae with a single superior prolateral spine (excluding apical spine); mid tibiae with two superior prolateral spines and three superior retrolateral spines (excluding apical spines). Morphological they are very similar to the Otago ground wētā H. maia, but can be distinguished by number of tergal stridulatory pegs and male terminalia.

Resolution of apical periodontitis and signs and symptoms of inflammation and radiographic evidence of continued root development and apical narrowing were demonstrated in all teeth. Histology wise, ingrowth of connective tissue into the canal space was observed.
Mimicking Eufriesea may provide these flies protection from their predators. In the surinamensis group, Ef. surinamensis and Ef. mexicana look very similar and it can be difficult to distinguish between the two. Ef. mexicana males have an elongate apical point of the subgenital plate that Ef. surinamensis males do not have. Also, the apical dorsal segment may be blue for Ef. mexicana, particularly for females.
The forewings are shining pale grey, with brassy and purplish reflections and there is a pale ochreous-yellow patch occupying the apical fourth of the wing, the upper half suffused with orange, the anterior edge convex, enclosing a longitudinal dark grey median dash. There is also a black apical dot, connected with a dark grey mark along the upper part of the termen. The hindwings are grey.
Brown ascomatal hairs grow mainly from the apical disc, usually appearing as helically coiled in the apical region with little branching. The hairs are either verrucose or warty, which are about 4.5 to 6.5 μm thick with occasionally coiled branches. Lateral seta-like hairs are often also present and have tapered or clavate terminal ends with septate. These hairs break away at maturity with no aerial mycelium.
The female cones are open, with sporophylls 16–21 cm long, with two to four ovules per sporophyll. The lamina is narrowly triangular, with toothed margins and an apical spine. The sarcotesta is yellow-brown with a waxy coating, the sclerotesta ovoid and flattened. The male cones are solitary, ovoid, 16–20 cm long and 7–10 cm diameter, brown, and with an upturned apical spine.
The forewings are buckthorn brown with the costa, from the base to the apical fifth, cinnamon brown. From the apical fifth of the costa a transverse cinnamon-brown shade extends to the dorsum, where it is broadest. In the center of the cell, there is a small cinnamon-brown spot and at the end of the cell a sordid white dot. The hindwings are greyish fuscous.
Segment 2 is blue on dorsum and pale green on the sides. Segments 3 to 7 are olivaceous-yellow with irregular reddish-brown stripes on mid-dorsum and narrow black apical annules. There is a broad mid-dorsal blackish-brown stripe on segments 8 and 9, enclosing a pair of triangular yellow apical spots. Segment 10 is bright yellow, with its base and mid-dorsum broadly black.
Alveolar consonants are made with the tip or blade of the tongue at the alveolar ridge just behind the teeth and can similarly be apical or laminal. Crosslinguistically, dental consonants and alveolar consonants are frequently contrasted leading to a number of generalizations of crosslinguistic patterns. The different places of articulation tend to also be contrasted in the part of the tongue used to produce them: most languages with dental stops have laminal dentals, while languages with apical stops usually have apical stops. Languages rarely have two consonants in the same place with a contrast in laminality, though Taa (ǃXóõ) is a counterexample to this pattern.
This band is followed by another greyish fuscous rounded spot, larger than either of the other two, from the anal angle along the apical margin, but not quite reaching to the costal margin, where there are three fuscous spots, two small and one larger. There is a slender shining leaden grey line borders the wing, running from the anal angle along the extreme apical margin, and around the apex along the base of the costal cilia and lying on the end of the cell. This spot is followed by another large brown patch, occupying the whole apical portion of the wing. The hindwings are pale leaden grey.Trans. Ent. Soc. Lond.

Through studies conducted with GFP, it has been confirmed that the dynamic state of actin filaments located in the apical region are essential for pollen tube growth. Experimentation of actin filaments stained with GFP-mTalin have yielded results confirming that tip-localized actin filaments are highly dynamic. Such experimentation has made a connection between the dynamics of tip-localized actin filaments and their role in the formation of actin structures in the subapical region. Furthermore, experimentation of actin filaments located in the apical dome of Arabidopsis indicates that actin filaments are continuously produced from the apical membrane of the pollen tube; the production of these actin filaments are mediated by formins.
The forewings are ochreous whitish with the dorsal area grey within a yellow-whitish streak along the fold, the dorsum whitish towards the base and the extreme costal edge dark fuscous anteriorly. There is a grey subcostal line from the base to a grey patch occupying the apical half of the wing, including a light orange upcurved streak from above the tornus to the apex, and a similar terminal streak meeting it at the extremities. There is also a round black apical dot preceded on the costa by a small white dot. The hindwings are grey with a small black apical dot preceded by whitish.
Historical studies termed these ribs as plastids organized around an oil droplet to form the star-shaped pattern now known to be the result of converging apical ribs. The bill-like projection is currently without a known function but acts as a useful identifier for Torodinium species. The apical groove was originally thought to be present only in T. robustum. However, recent studies employing the use of rDNA sequencing reveal that the presence of the groove in one species and its absence in the other is extremely unlikely owing to their very similar SSU rDNA sequences, so the apical groove is suspected to be present in T. teredo as well.

Foerstellites is a genus of Ordovician cephalopods from North America, belonging to the family Endoceratidae, in which the siphuncle takes up the entire apex. Foestellites, named by Kobayashi, 1940, is based on the apical part of the conch, or shell, which expands rapidly as septa are added. Not a true nanno type, since the siphuncle is not truly swollen at the apex. Probably the apical end of Cameroceras or Vaginoceras.
Achaemenes () was the apical ancestor of the Achaemenid dynasty of rulers of Persia. Other than his role as an apical ancestor, nothing is known of his life or actions. It is quite possible that Achaemenes was only the mythical ancestor of the Persian royal house, but if Achaemenes was a historical person, he would have lived around the end of the 8th century and the beginning of the 7th century BC..

Dodson & Dodson 1989 describes the lip as subreniform; Reichenbach 1861 as cordate.H. G. Reichenbach "Orchides" item 262 in C. Müller, Ed. Walpers Annales Botanices Systematicae VI(1861)386 Berlin. As with other members of E. sect. Schistochila, the lip bears two lateral lobes and an apical lobe; in the case of E. smaragdinum, the apical lobe is divided in two, producing a roughly triangular lip with four points at its end.
The voiceless retroflex sibilant fricative is a type of consonantal sound used in some spoken languages. The symbol in the International Phonetic Alphabet that represents this sound is . Like all the retroflex consonants, the IPA letter is formed by adding a rightward-pointing hook to the bottom of the ess (the letter used for the corresponding alveolar consonant). A distinction can be made between laminal, apical, and sub-apical articulations.
The wingspan is 9.5-11.5 mm. The forewings are dark brown with a broad and distinct pale yellowish white streak in the fold from the base to the cell end, cut by a blackish brown dash at 0.6. There are a few yellowish white scales along the margins at the apical half of the wing, forming a small apical spot in some specimens. The hindwings are dark fuscous.
It is typically the first step in any invagination process and is also important in folding tissues at specified hingepoints. During gastrulation in both invertebrates and vertebrates, apical constriction of a ring of cells leads to blastopore formation. These cells are known as bottle cells, for their eventual shape. Because all of the cells constrict on the apical side, the epithelial sheet bends convexly on the basal side.
Although apical constriction is always observed, it is not necessary for gastrulation, indicating that there are other morphogenetic forces working in parallel. Researchers have shown that the removal of bottle cells does not inhibit gastrulation, but simply makes it less efficient. Bottle cell removal does, however, result in deformed embryos. Apical constriction of cells at the hingepoints of neural folds generates forces that participate in neural tube closure.
Septal necks are short, brims long and recumbent. Connecting rings are thin and poorly known. Bullettes at the apical end of the connecting rings, which grasp the periphery of the previous septal foramina and connect to the inside of the previous septal necks, are never swollen. Endocones are formed by overlapping parietal deposits that line in inner side of the siphuncle in the apical part of the shell.

A Pancoast tumor is an apical tumor that is typically found in conjunction with a smoking history. The clinical signs and symptoms can be confused with neurovascular compromise at the level of the superior thoracic aperture. The patient's smoking history, rapid onset of clinical signs and symptoms, and pleuritic pain can suggest an apical tumor. A Pancoast tumor can give rise to both Pancoast syndrome and Horner's syndrome.
The forewings are dark fuscous with a broad ochreous-white streak occupying the costal half from the base, from the middle onwards gradually attenuated and leaving the costal edge, not quite reaching the apex. There is a fine white strigula between this and the apical fifth of the costa and there is a black apical mark. The hindwings are grey, darker posteriorly.Journal of the Bombay Natural History Society.
Like other members of the family Sarcoscyphaceae, Wynnea species have multinucleate ascospores and paraphyses. The ascus has a thickened apical ring capped by a hinged operculum; its opening often is oriented obliquely, a condition referred to as suboperculate. Three structural components are involved in spore discharge in Wynnea species: the operculum, the suboperculum, and the zone of dehiscence. Collectively, these three structures are known as the apical apparatus.

There is an indistinct series of blackish dots around the apical edge, more or less confluent.
Apical delta refers to the branching pattern of small accessory canals and minor foramina seen at the tip or apex of some tooth roots. The pattern is said to be reminiscent of a river delta when sectioned and viewed using a microscope. Because the anatomy of this area is very small and complex with several portals of entry to the root canal i.e. more than one apical foramen.
Plant is both diecious and monoecious. Spermatangia are produced in separate male plants on both primary and secondary laterals, apical or sub apical in position which are either single or in clusters, pairs are also common.

The male cones are solitary, narrow ovoid, 25–30 cm long and 5–7 cm diameter, brown, the sporophylls 25–30 mm long with an upturned apical spine.
Throughout the plant's life, auxin helps the plant maintain the polarity of growth, and actually "recognize" where it has its branches (or any organ) connected. An important principle of plant organization based upon auxin distribution is apical dominance, which means the auxin produced by the apical bud (or growing tip) diffuses (and is transported) downwards and inhibits the development of ulterior lateral bud growth, which would otherwise compete with the apical tip for light and nutrients. Removing the apical tip and its suppressively acting auxin allows the lower dormant lateral buds to develop, and the buds between the leaf stalk and stem produce new shoots which compete to become the lead growth. The process is actually quite complex because auxin transported downwards from the lead shoot tip has to interact with several other plant hormones (such as strigolactones or cytokinins) in the process on various positions along the growth axis in plant body to achieve this phenomenon.
In the centre or on the dorsal side of the apical area is a longitudinal apical line, running from the transverse fascia to apex of forewing. This line is often interrupted or only present as one or more dots or streaks. Markings of the costal and dorsal cilia of the forewing are as follows: a white streak from outer costal spot in almost all of the species, a white streak or spot connected to the apical line is very common, and occasionally there is a white streak from outer dorsal spot. For identification of the species by the external features, mainly the markings of the head, thorax and forewing are of diagnostic importance.
A second variable is whether the contact occurs with the very tip of the tongue (an apical articulation ). With the surface just above the tip, the blade of the tongue (a laminal articulation ), or with the underside of the tip (a subapical articulation). Apical and subapical articulations are always "tongue-up", with the tip of the tongue above the teeth, and laminal articulations are often "tongue-down", with the tip of the tongue behind the lower teeth. The upward curvature of the tongue tip to make apical or subapical contact renders palatalization more difficult so domed (palato- alveolar) consonants are not attested with subapical articulation and fully palatalized (such as alveolo-palatal) sounds occur only with laminal articulation.
The nuclei then move to upper regions near the basal side where they proceed through S-phase. This nuclear movement is repeated at each cell cycle and is maintained by an apical-to-basal migration during G1- phase and a reverse basal-to-apical movement during G2- phase. It was proposed that the INM maximized the amount of mitotic events in the limited space and that, since neuronal progenitors have a basal body, they need to move their nucleus to the apical side in order to assemble the mitotic spindle used in mitosis. It has been reported that the INM is not required for the cell cycle since removing the INM doesn’t change the length of the cell cycle.
The forewings are shining white with the costal edge dark fuscous towards the base and with a very oblique elongate dark fuscous mark towards the dorsum before the middle. There is a dark fuscous line running from the disc beyond the middle to the apical patch, where it meets a similar shorter line from an irregular suffused spot on the tornus. A patch is found along the apical fourth of the costa, consisting of three oblique wedge-shaped dark brown spots separated by white strigulae, the second strigula limiting a blackish apical dot, and preceded by two minute linear black dots surrounded by pale ochreous before the termen. The hindwings are grey.

At the angle of the fascia is a narrow, longitudinal, black streak and the apical edge has a marginal, black streak.
Common to the genus Karenia, this species shares morphological characters such as a smooth theca and a linear apical groove on its apex. At the same time, this species can be distinguished from its cogenerates on the basis of morphological characteristics within its vegetative cells, including the location and shape of its nucleus; the excavation of its hypotheca; the characteristics of its apical and sulcal groove extensions on the epitheca; the shape of its cells, as well as their size and symmetry; the degree of dorsoventral compression; and the presence of an apical carina. Species that present said dorsoventral compression are shown to swim in a distinctive fluttering motion.Rhodes, Lesley, and Susie Wood.

There are three shining white fasciae and a subtle pattern of silvery-white scale patterns in the apical third. The first is a short basal triangular streak to about one eighth, tapering from full wing width to an acute point behind the costa, separated from the costal margin by a single line of black scales. The second is a broad transverse band of constant width, at about one third and finally a small triangular area of white scales in the apex. There are narrow patches of white scales between the veins around the margin of the wing in the apical third, and a radiating pattern of fine, single-scale lines along all veins in the apical third.
The mucilaginous sheath is top short at the apex. Heterocysts are usually spherical in appearance. Trichomes are tapered at the apical region. Vegetetive cells are shorter and barrel shaped.
The small shell has an elongate-conic shape. It has a smooth appearance, except for incremental lines. The suture is distinct but not deep. The apical portion is decollate.
There is a long apical mucron which is red-orange with the apex white and a translucent sheath, with some little spots of white and orange on the edge.

The plant is a terrestrial or lithophytic fern. The prominent rhizome has narrow and twisted apical scales. Its fronds are 30–50 cm long and 8–14 cm wide.
The dorso-posterior area is cream tinged ochreous and pale orange marbled with olive brownish. The hindwings are white mixed pale orange and dotted brownish in the apical third.
This would result in a slightly delayed yet increased growth rate. The removal of the methoxy groups in the pectins at the flanks of the apical dome unmasks their negatively charged carboxylate groups. The anionic homogalacturonans then bind Ca2+ and become stiffer as the new apical dome, which will incorporate more methylesterified pectins and pectin methylesterase, grows away from the stiffened flanks composed of calcium pectate. The external Ca2+ concentration is critical.
If the SAM is removed, it stimulates growth in the lateral direction. By careful pruning, it is possible to create remarkable designs or patterns. Some fruit trees have strong apical dominance, and young trees can become "leggy", with poor side limb development. Apical dominance can be reduced in this case, or in cases where limbs are broken off by accident, by cutting off the auxin flow above side buds that one wishes to stimulate.
The stricture is formed in such a way that the airstream causes a repeating pattern of opening and closing of the soft articulator(s). Apical trills typically consist of two or three periods of vibration. Taps and flaps are single, rapid, usually apical gestures where the tongue is thrown against the roof of the mouth, comparable to a very rapid stop. These terms are sometimes used interchangeably, but some phoneticians make a distinction.
Protein MAL2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the MAL2 gene. This gene encodes a multispan transmembrane protein belonging to the MAL proteolipid family. The protein is a component of lipid rafts and, in polarized cells, it primarily localizes to endosomal structures beneath the apical membrane. It is required for transcytosis, an intracellular transport pathway used to deliver membrane-bound proteins and exogenous cargos from the basolateral to the apical surface.
There is a large greyish shade on the subcosta beyond the postmedian line, interrupted by a whitish oblique hue on the subcostal and there is an apical whitish marking, defined on the inside by a greyish shade on the subcostal.

Each mandible is curved almost 90˚ with the bases covered by the edges of the clypeus lobes. On the mandible's ends are two teeth, a smaller sub-apical one and a larger apical one with a groove that likely matches the position of the opposite mandible placement when they are closed. The antennae are distinctly 11-segmented, with a curved scape that just reaches the rear margin of the head capsule when reclined.
The forewings are grey sprinkled with fuscous. The apical third is more strongly suffused with fuscous and there are two discal dots obscurely indicated at one-third and two-thirds, rarely another dot beneath the latter. There is also a dark fuscous line or dotted chain along the apical fourth of the costa and around the apex and upper part of the termen. The hindwings are pale grey, towards the base whitish-ochreous.Proc. Linn. Soc.

The apical teeth of the mandibles are long and straight, whereas the medial teeth are much smaller. The posterior to the eyes are convex, where it converges towards the occiput (the back of the head) and forms a collar seen in several Aphaenogaster species. The ants have large, triangular mandibles with three apical teeth and a flat clypeus. The eyes are large with 400 facets, but workers from small incipient colonies only have 200 facets.
A glycocalyx can also be found on the apical portion of microvilli within the digestive tract, especially within the small intestine. It creates a meshwork 0.3 μm thick and consists of acidic mucopolysaccharides and glycoproteins that project from the apical plasma membrane of epithelial absorptive cells. It provides additional surface for adsorption and includes enzymes secreted by the absorptive cells that are essential for the final steps of digestion of proteins and sugars.
Researchers studying maize seedlings found that calcium absorption was greatest in the apical root segment, and potassium at the base of the root. Along other root segments absorption was similar. Absorbed potassium is transported to the root tip, and to a lesser extent other parts of the root, then also to the shoot and grain. Calcium transport from the apical segment is slower, mostly transported upward and accumulated in stem and shoot.
Fissurella coarctata has a large apical hole and of characteristic shape, color pale pink or brown. It has a length of about 25–35 mm. This species is fairly common in Senegal and Sierra Leone, rare in Ghana and has not been recorded further east (Yankson and Kendall, 2001). Fissurella nubecula has an aperture length of 15–25 mm, medium sized apical hole and color pink or violet often with radiating white bands.
A study has shown that teeth treated with revascularization showed a significantly greater percentage increase in root length compared with teeth treated by either MTA apexification or calcium hydroxide apexification MTA apexification procedures. Regenerative procedures promoted a decrease in apical diameter (apical closure). Root development allows the increase of the resistance to fracture and improve the tooth survival rate. The tertiary therapeutic goal of regenerative endodontic procedures is return of pulp vitality.
There is an apical portion that approaches- but does not reach- the apex of the heart; this apical portion is packed with rough trabeculations. Last portion is a muscular outlet portion (infudibulum) that pumps the blood to the pulmonary artery. Atrioventricular groove, a grove that harbors Right Coronary Artery of the heart, marks the separation of the atrium and the ventricle. Internally, Crista supraventricularis, a muscular thickening, separates the right ventricle to two spaces.
Their p4 had 5-7 apical cusps depending on the specimen. This enlarged p4 would have potentially allowed the mammal to have crack open nuts and seeds as well as act as a slicing function on invertebrates. Their p3 is characterized by lingual apical cusps that are flattened and sometimes even concave. In some species of Carpodaptes, their upper M1 indicates a specialized wedging function that acts in accordance with their p4.
Although studies have shown that the HHBV epsilon has less pairing in the upper stem than DHBV, this pairing is not absolutely required for DHBV infection in ducks. DHBV epsilon consists of a stem structure, a bulge and an apical loop (Fig. 1). The RNA structure was determined by chemical probing, NMR analysis and by mutagenesis. HHBV epsilon also consists of a stem structure, a bulge and an apical loop (Fig. 2).
Laminal, 17. Apical, 18. Sub-apical In articulatory phonetics, the place of articulation (also point of articulation) of a consonant is the point of contact where an obstruction occurs in the vocal tract between an articulatory gesture, an active articulator (typically some part of the tongue), and a passive location (typically some part of the roof of the mouth). Along with the manner of articulation and the phonation, it gives the consonant its distinctive sound.
These transcription factors are Apical Ectodermal Ridge (AER) specific in limb development. The Apical Ectodermal Ridge signaling is important for specification of distal limb structures. Sp8 and Sp9 mediate Fgf10 signaling, which in turn regulates Fgf8 expression (Fgf10--->Fgf8). Fgf8 is essential for normal limb development, and without the presence of Fgf8 in early development, there would be a decreased length of the limb bud and possible failure of the limb tissue develop.
The forewings are light violaceous brown, the basal fourth of the costa edge black. There is a small black dot on the middle of the cell and another at the end of the cell, as well as a similar spot on the middle of the fold. There is a faint series of black spots at the apical fifth, parallel with the apical and terminal edges, which are narrowly rose coloured. The hindwings are dull fuscous.
Above this the costal part of the wing is bright golden yellow. The costal yellow part is produced somewhat farther out in the apical part of the wing than is the darker dorsal color, which stops abruptly at the tornus. The apical part of the wing is white, delicately mottled with black, each scale having a thin curved black edge. The hindwings are light silvery ochreous, but slightly darker, fuscous towards apex.
Hapalotremus martinorum differs from all other congeners by the colour pattern of live specimens. Males differ in the male palpal bulb morphology, with thickened and less curved embolus having a blunt sub-apical keel and less-developed apical keel. Females differ in the shape of the spermathecae, with the lateral bases more pronounced than the superiors and the upper edge more rounded. Specimens inhabit short burrows or crevices under stones in high cloud forests.
Diprogulic acid (also known as dikegulac) is a precursor used in commercial ascorbic acid production. In agriculture, its sodium salt, dikegulac sodium, is used as a plant growth regulator, primarily used as a branching agent. When it is taken up by a plant, dikegulac sodium is translocated to its apical meristems, where it inhibits DNA synthesis. This suppresses apical dominance in the plant and can stimulate lateral branching, resulting in a bushier growth habit.
The surface of the blotch is marked with considerable fuscous scaling. There is a fuscous spot in the cell, beyond the edge of the basal patch and the dorsum is strongly suffused fuscous. At the apical third of the costa is a narrow triangular white dash followed on the apical part of the costa by white scaling and the costal dash is edged inwardly reddish ochreous. Subterminally, greyish scales form ill- defined streaks and spots.
There is an oblique, black, apical stripe and two parallel, weakly marked S-shaped discal lines, followed distally with a linear patch representing a third line near the hind margin.

After the isotropic-apical switch in budding yeast, cortical components, supposedly of the exocyst and polarisome, are delocalized from the apical pole to the entire plasma membrane of the bud, but not the mother cell. The septin ring at the neck serves as a cortical barrier that prevents membrane diffusion of these factors between the two compartments. This asymmetric distribution is abolished in septin mutants. Some conditional septin mutants do not form buds at their normal axial location.

Solute carrier family 26 member 6 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC26A6 gene. It is an anion-exchanger expressed in the apical membrane of the kidney proximal tubule, the apical membranes of the duct cells in the pancreas, and the villi of the duodenum. This gene belongs to the solute carrier 26 family, whose members encode anion transporter proteins. This particular family member encodes a protein involved in transporting chloride, oxalate, sulfate and bicarbonate.
How epithelial cells generate and maintain polarity remains unclear, but certain molecules have been found to play a key role. A variety of molecules are located at the apical membrane, but only a few key molecules act as determinants that are required to maintain the identity of the apical membrane and, thus, epithelial polarity. These molecules are the proteins Cdc42, atypical protein kinase C (aPKC), Par6, Par3/Bazooka/ASIP. Crumbs, "Stardust" and protein at tight junctions (PATJ).

The hindwings are brownish fuscous.
In long term depression (LTD) the GluR subunits of AMPARs undergo endocytosis. Temporal differences in signaling over the course of neuron maturation suggest that the most promising studies of arbor development and synaptogenesis in the future are going to occur in intact brain systems. Another model studied in apical dendrite development is the rat. Injection of tetanus toxin into neonatal rats has shown that growth of apical dendrites occurs normally during signal deprivation while basal dendrite growth is restricted.

Adventitious buds develop from places other than a shoot apical meristem, which occurs at the tip of a stem, or on a shoot node, at the leaf axil, the bud being left there during the primary growth. They may develop on roots or leaves, or on shoots as a new growth. Shoot apical meristems produce one or more axillary or lateral buds at each node. When stems produce considerable secondary growth, the axillary buds may be destroyed.

Neuroepithelial cells give rise to radial glial progenitor cells in early embryonic development. To make this change, neuroepithelial cells begin to downregulate their epithelial features, by stopping the expression of occludin, a tight junction protein. Loss of occludin causes a loss of the previous tight junction seals which is required for the generation of neuroblasts. Another tight junction protein, PARD3, remains at the apical side of the cell co-localizing with N-cadherin and keeps the apical face of the neuroepithelial cell intact.
Lining the CSF- filled ventricles, and spinal canal, the ependymal cells play an important role in the production and regulation of CSF. Their apical surfaces are covered in a layer of cilia, which circulate CSF around the CNS. Their apical surfaces are also covered with microvilli, which absorb CSF. Within the ventricles of the brain, a population of modified ependymal cells and capillaries together known as the tela choroidea form a structure called the choroid plexus, which produces the CSF.
The conservative Irish dialects mentioned above also have five acute nasals, again including four coronal; however, only four different primary articulations are involved, as a secondary velarized/palatalized distinction is at play. The sounds in question are laminal dental velarized , apical alveolar velarized , apical alveolar palatalized , laminal postalveolar (palatalized) , and dorsal palatal (in addition to labial velarized , labial palatalized and velar ). The eight sounds participate in four velarized/palatalized pairs: ; ; ; . Other dialects have variously reduced the four coronal nasals to three or two.
Interkinetic nuclear migration is a feature of developing neuroepithelia and is characterized by the periodic movement of the cell’s nucleus with the progression of the cell cycle. Developing neuroepithelia are tissues composed of neural progenitor cells, each spanning the entire thickness of the epithelium from the ventricular surface to the laminal side. Cell nuclei occupy different positions along the apical–basal axis of the tissue. S phase occurs close to the basal side whereas mitosis exclusively occurs close to ventricular apical side.
Etiolated seedlings are yellowish in color as chlorophyll synthesis and chloroplast development depend on light. They will open their cotyledons and turn green when treated with light. In a natural situation, seedling development starts with skotomorphogenesis while the seedling is growing through the soil and attempting to reach the light as fast as possible. During this phase, the cotyledons are tightly closed and form the apical hook to protect the shoot apical meristem from damage while pushing through the soil.
The apical ectodermal ridge in embryonic development is very similar to the apical ectodermal cap in limb regeneration. The progress zone can be seen near to the zone of polarizing activity, which instructs cells on how to orient the limb. Dorsal and ventral views of a newt that has had a limb amputated and regrown, from "The elements of experimental embryology" by Julian Huxley and Gavin de Beer. In vertebrates, epimorphosis relies on blastema formation to proliferate cells into the new tissue.
The forewing colour consists of brownish orange intermixed with a few dark-brown scales along the costal area and apical one-third. There are two dark brown discal spots, one near the base, the other near the apical end and there is one dark brown spot basad of the spot near the base of the cell. There is also a small dark brown patch of scales near the base and the marginal scales are dark brown. The hindwings are pale brown.
The scales on the forewings are hair brown at the base, tipped with black. There are three small black maculae, one in the middle and one at the end of the cell, the third on the middle of the plical fold. There are a few black scales at the apical fifth of the costa and at the termen but not enough to form distinct maculae. The hindwings are glossy smoke grey, densely irrorated (sprinkled) with drab at the apical area.
In some orchids, the apical meristem of the rhizome forms an ascendent swollen stem called a pseudobulb, and the apical meristem is consumed in a terminal inflorescence. Continued growth occurs in the rhizome, where a lateral meristem takes over to form another pseudobulb and repeat the process. This process is evident in the jointed appearance of the rhizome, where each segment is the product of an individual meristem, but the sympodial nature of a stem is not always clearly visible.
At the end of the cell are two, small black dots, one above the other, below which a tuft of raised scales, narrowly edged with black. There is also an inconspicuous, outwardly oblique black streaklet on the middle of the costa and a similar, but much more pronounced black streak at the apical fourth, reaching nearly to the termen and edged posteriorly with light ochreous. Around the apical edge is a series of short black lines. The hindwings are light ochreous fuscous.
The life history of diatoms includes both vegetative and sexual reproduction, though the sexual stage is not yet documented in this species. Although it is symmetric only along the apical axis, typical of gomphonemoid diatoms, it is a cymbelloid, which are typically symmetric along both primary axes. Cells contain a raphe, which allows them to move on surfaces, and an apical porefield, through which a mucopolysaccharide stalk is secreted. The stalk can attach to rocks, plants, or other submerged surfaces.

The forewings are light golden brown with the base of the costal edge and a large, triangular spot on the apical third of the costa dark brown, the edges of which are strongly iridescent. There is a dark brown spot at the end of the fold, surrounded by strongly iridescent scales. And there is a perpendicular, dark brown line at the apical fifth across the wing tip, edged exteriorly with a strongly iridescent patch of steel blue scales. The hindwings are dark fuscous.
These molecules appear to form two distinct complexes: an aPKC-Par3-Par6 "aPKC" (or "Par") complex that also interacts with Cdc42; and a Crumbs-Stardust-PATJ "Crumbs" complex. Of these two complexes, the aPKC complex is the most important for epithelial polarity, being required even when the Crumbs complex is not. Crumbs is the only transmembrane protein in this list and the Crumbs complex serves as an apical cue to keep the aPKC complex apical during complex cellular shape changes.
The forewings are ochreous with a fuscous costal area. There is a sinuous dark antemedial line with a small annulus in the cell beyond it, as well as a large ochreous-centered discocellular reniform dark patch with a waved postmedial line with a large dark apical patch beyond it. There are two small ochreous spots on its outer edge. The hindwings are ochreous with a discocellular speck, as well as an apical dark patch and a series of marginal specks.
Electroencephalogram (EEG) scalp signals are summed EPSPs and IPSPs of nerve cells.Zani A PA, ed. The Cognitive Electrophysiology of Mind and Brain; 2002 EEG can only measure the potentials of cells arranged in organized layers and whose apical dendrites are oriented perpendicularly to the surface of the cortex (as they are in pyramidal cells). The potential measured by the EEG is the difference between the basal and apical parts of the active neurons that are oriented in such a way.
For instance, there are longitudinal actin cables in the shank region in order to regulate reverse-fountain cytoplasmic streaming. The F-actin controls the accumulation of the homogalacturonans full vesicles- essentially mediating tip growth- in the subapex region. The actin filaments controls the apical membrane and cytoplasm interactions while the pollen tube is growing in the apex region. The F-actin from the apical membrane makes an actin binding protein called formin which is essential for pollen tube tip growth.
There is no general agreement about what actual feature distinguishes these sounds. Spanish phoneticians normally describe the difference as (for the northern Iberian sound) vs. (for the more common sound), but Ladefoged and Maddieson claim that English can be pronounced apical, which is evidently not the same as the apical sibilant of Iberian Spanish and Basque. Also, Adams asserts that many dialects of Modern Greek have a laminal sibilant with a sound quality similar to the "apico-alveolar" sibilant of northern Iberia.
Clinical success is resultant from the reestablishment of blood supply to the ischemic but uninfected dental pulp tissue. Reinnervation from sensory axons should then followed and the axons is likely to be recruited from the apical region. In 2011, an important demonstration in the field of regenerative endodontics was found. The investigators found out that the influx of blood in the apical area into the disinfected canals was coincided with a clinically significant mesenchymal stem cells transfer into the root canal system.
Each leaf is usually divided into three different parts: # The vaginant laminae (or lamina vera) is a boat-shaped or sheathing part of the leaf. The central cells of vaginant lamina somewhat more regularly arranged than ventral and dorsal laminae. The cells in this section are a little longer than wide, up to 12 micrometres wide. # The ventral lamina (or the apical lamina): the part of the leaf apical to the vaginant laminae on the upper side of the costa.
It consists of an inlet portion (ostium venosum), an outlet portion (ostium arteriosum) and an apical portion Two strong papillary muscles (anterolateral and posteromedial papillary muscles) within the left ventricle anchor the two leaflets of the mitral valve (the valve between left atrium and ventricle consists of two leaflets). While these two muscles have a thick muscular base, they separate to various tendinous cords before entering the leaflets of the mitral valve. Apical portion is conical and consists of fine trabeculations.
The wingspan is 17–19 mm. The forewings are white shaded with ochreous, and with a rectangular fuscous area along the inner margin of the middle third and two fuscous costal spots, one near the middle and one at the apical fourth. From the latter, a row of black dots extends from the apex along the termen to the tornus. The apical fourth is flecked with black scales and there are two fuscous dots on the cell, one basal, one distal.
This maturation is dependent on the position of the scion growth in relation to the axillary buds. The rate of maturation is decreased in lateral shoots for every order they are removed from the apical meristem and the total distance grown from the apical meristem. Hans Molisch first introduced the term topohysis in 1915 in response to Hermann Vöchting’s 1904 Araucaria excelsa cutting propagation experiment. Vöchting recorded that cuttings from the terminal shoots immediately developed into normal plants with orthotropic growth.
The apical barrier technique with mineral trioxide aggregate was then used. The advantage of this technique over apexification was that it shortened the number of appointments and the healing outcomes were better. A disadvantage of both these techniques was that it did not allow the root to mature and so regenerative endodontic procedures (REPs) were utilised. A systematic review conducted by Kahler, et al (2017) showed similar clinical outcomes for teeth treated with REPs versus calcium hydroxide apexification/MTA apical barrier technique.
In most species, the thecal surface contains intercalary bands and is smooth and covered with large thecal pores that are round and ovoid. Another distinguishing feature to identify Coolia is a plate on the epitheca that is off centred and contains an apical pore complex with a long, curved pore that has a slit containing two costae. This apical pore is often visible because of its large size. Coolia also has an ellipsoidal-shaped ventral pore on the ventral surface.
Tight junctions are multi- protein complexes that hold cells of a same tissue together and prevent movement of water and water-soluble molecules between cells. In epithelial cells, they function also to separate the extracellular fluid surrounding their apical and basolateral membranes. These junctions exist as a continuous band located just below the apical surface between the membranes of neighboring epithelial cells. The tight junctions on adjacent cells line up so as to produce a seal between different tissues and body cavities.
Boston: McGraw-Hill Companies, 1999. page 1072. Soon after inflammation has been initiated, macrophages enter the scene and, if not controlled by the initial ambush of neutrophils and their tactics, the microbial invasion is faced with a second strike consisting of these leukocytes, along with lymphocytes. Together, the cells of this second strike compose the bulk of the apical periodontitis lesion and serve an important role in the subsequent chronic phase of inflammation of apical periodontitis, as they can live for many months.
Beyond this white line on the costa is a patch of ground colour more or less evenly overlaid with dark brown scales, beyond this on outer margin is a wide band of blackish-brown and a paler streak at the extreme outer edge.

Though T-cadherin can mediate weak adhesion in aggregation assays in vitro, the lack of intracellular domain suggests that T-cadherin is not involved in stable cell-cell adhesion. In vivo T-cadherin was detected on the apical cell surface of the chick intestinal epithelium. In cultures of transfected MDCS cells, T-cadherin was also expressed apically, whereas N-cadherin located basolaterally corresponded to the zone of cell contacts. The apical cell surface distribution of T-cadherin was proposed to possibly endow T-cadherin with recognition functions.

Antennal eyecaps whitish. Forewings are shining pale ochreous-greyish, coarsely irrorated with dark fuscous ; outer part of apical cilia whitish. Hindwings are light grey. The yellowish larvae feed on Malus domestica, Malus x purpurea and Malus sylvestris.
The collar is pale grey. Antennal eyecaps are whitish. The front wings are bronze-fuscous with a broad somewhat shining whitish fascia beyond middle ; apical area beyond this is rather dark purplish- fuscous. Hindwings are light grey.
The ground colour of the hindwings is white, but the distal margin and apical area are narrowly brown. Adults are on wing in April, May, July and December in Jamaica. There are probably multiple generations per year.
The median and subterminal transverse lines are faded brown and there are dark brown spots on the apical margin, forming a more or less continuous line. The hindwings are snow white, with marginal spots between the veins.
Sexes show strong sexual dimorphism. The male has uniform mottled-brown forewings. There is a pale fawn colored circular apical patch triangular basal patch on the forewings of the male. These patches are whitish in the female.
The apical area has two creamy spots. The hind wing is black with cream-white basal, postbasal, and posmedian areas. A small red spot is present on the anal margin. The tails are black with yellowish tips.
Dorsal scales are smooth, without apical pits, and are arranged in 15 rows. The ventrals are rounded; the subcaudals are single (entire),Boulenger GA (1896). Catalogue of the Snakes in the British Museum (Natural History). Volume III.
Due to the fact that the apical cell of Tetraphis pellucida stops dividing at an early stage of sporophyte development, much of the growth of the sporophyte is due to cell elongation and division below the apex.
Sterile hyphae are present. Microconidia are obovoid, oval to allantoid, 0-septate conidia are abundant, 1-septate conidia less common. Sporodochia are seldom present. Macroconidia have slightly beaked apical cells, a footlike basal cell, 3–5 septate.

The branching system of Chara species is complex with branches derived from apical cells which cut off segments at the base to form nodal and internodal cells alternately.Round, F.E. 1965.The Biology of the algae. Ernest Arnold.
But in these cases, the problem is in the CFTR chloride transporter that is also located on the apical membrane of eccrine gland ducts. Dermicidin is a newly isolated antimicrobial peptide produced by the eccrine sweat glands.
The ground colour of the forewings is white, with an ochreous tinge and grey suffusion in the basal area, along the costa and in the apical third. The hindwings are light grey, becoming darker towards the apex.
The leaves are needle-like, long, sharply pointed, green above and with glaucous stomatal bands beneath. The cones are berry-like, with a fleshy, edible purple aril long and one (rarely two) apical seeds 1 cm long.
There are two fine fuscous dots at the posterior end of the cell, one above the other. The hindwings are pale whitish fuscous, darker on the apical portion.Transactions of the Royal Society of South Australia. 47: 55.
There is also a black subapical elongate dot, above which are two small white marks. The lower edge of the apical projection is white. The hindwings are grey, paler and bluish towards the base.Meyrick, Edward (1916–1923).
Mycalesis oculus, the red-disc bushbrown, is a satyrine butterfly found in southern India. It is similar in markings to Mycalesis adolphei but distinguished by the reddish band around the large apical spots on the upper forewings.
Insects of the Great Lakes Region. University of Michigan Press. p. 127. . They also have apical claws, lacking the preapical claws of the Veliidae. Their pronota are broad, usually more so than the rest of their bodies.
Coleophora pterosparti is a moth of the family Coleophoridae. It is found on the Iberian Peninsula. The larvae feed on Chamaespartium tridentatum. They create a spatulate leaf case, made from the mined apical part of a phyllodium.
Female is short and robust; the yellow marks are more broad and vivid. The yellow lateral stripes continued to segment 7. Segment 8 has a narrow and 9 has a broad yellow apical annule, covering dorsal half.
Sarcotesta 3 mm thick, and yellow in color, with smooth sclerotesta. Male cones solitary and erect, spindle shaped to narrow ovoid, 50–60 cm long, 12–13 cm in diameter, with orange color. Prominent apical spine present.
The only two pentagonal planar species known are the isoelectronic (nine valence electrons) ions and . Both are derived from the pentagonal bipyramid with two lone pairs occupying the apical positions and the five fluorine atoms all equatorial.
The forewings are greyish fuscous at the base, blending into bright purple on the apical half of the wing. The basal half is irrorated with small whitish shining dots, which run in a series of lines, radiating outwards from the base to the middle of the wing. A few similar dots, but of a rather yellower colour, are visible about the middle of the bright purple apical half of the wing. Upon this outer half are four distinct shining iridescent metallic bands, with a lilac or green reflexion.
In most exocrine glands, the CFTR protein normally secretes chloride ions into the lumen, and also has a tonic inhibitory effect on the opening of the apical sodium channel (which absorbs sodium into the cell). Impaired CFTR functioning directly reduces ductal epithelial chloride secretion and indirectly increases sodium absorption through lack of CFTR's inhibitory effect on the apical sodium channel. The result is dehydrated mucus and a widened, negative transepithelial potential difference. The nasal TEPD is increased in cystic fibrosis, making it a potential diagnostic tool for this disorder.
There is a large dark brown patch on dorsal edge near the base. The costal base is of the general color of the wing and there is a blackish ill- defined costal spot at the apical third, which runs out in a dark shade across the wing. Just before this spot is another smaller, more sharply defined costal blackish spot. Along the veins and in the disk are longitudinal dark lines, sharpest and darkest in the apical part of the wing, and each terminating at the base of the cilia in a deep black spot.
The costal part of the fascia is concave toward the apex, the dorsal part straight, and passes obliquely backward to the dorsal margin. The apical part has dark lines radiating into the cilia and the median space is washed with brownish, having a slight golden reflection, becoming darker in the costal portion, and more so toward the apical fascia. In the dorsal half, there are two brown spots at two-fifths and three-fifths of the wing respectively, the former surrounded by raised white scales. The hindwings are pale fuscous, paler towards the base.
Alternatively, workers may be subterranean associates of attines and thus not accessible to standard collection techniques. The mandibular dentition of reina is highly distinctive and unlike any other Megalomyrmex species. In other species the dentition varies from a condition of few teeth that gradually decrease in size basally to one in which the two apical teeth are much larger than a series of diminished basal denticles. In contrast, M. reina has a single large apical tooth, which is long and sharp, followed by a relatively uniform series of smaller teeth.
Terminal bar is a histological term given to the unresolved group of junctional complexes that attach adjacent epithelial cells on their lateral surfaces: the Zonula Occludens, Zonula Adherens, Macula Adherens and Macula Communicans. Using light microscopy, the terminal bar appears as a bar or spot at the apical surface of the cell, wherein the structures listed cannot be resolved. With electron microscopy, it can be visually disseminated into these structures. The terminal bar is located on the lateral surface of epithelial cells, where the lateral surface meets the apical surface.
The terminal web is a filamentous structure found at the apical surface of epithelial cells that possess microvilli. It is composed primarily of actin filaments stabilized by spectrin, which also anchors the terminal web to the apical cell membrane. The presence of myosin II and tropomyosin helps to explain the contractile ability of the terminal web. When contracted, the terminal web causes a decrease in diameter of the apex of the cell, causing the microvilli, which are anchored into the terminal web through their stiff actin fibers, to spread apart.
A little more than the apical third of wing is densely dusted with black scales, which condense into four, all black, velvety spots, one large costal spot, one-third from apex reaching down to the fold, one smaller apical, one moon shaped at the tornus, and a small round dot between the two latter. The last three are internally edged by light silvery scales forming an indistinct, thin, open V shape, with the point toward the apex. The hindwings are purplish gray with silvery reflections. The larvae feed on Pisonia aculeata.
Reabsorption of molecules and ions back into the blood from the proximal tube is done via epithelial cells. The epithelial cell create a low Na+ concentration within the cell by actively pumping out Na+ into the blood via a Na+/K+ ATPase pump on the basolateral membrane. The osmotic gradient allows for the cotransport of Na+ with molecules such as Cl-, glucose, and vitamins into the epithelial cell from the apical side (side facing the proximal tubule). Water freely crosses the apical side into the epithelial cell following the solutes entering actively.
While the protonema is growing by apical cell division, at some stage, under the influence of the phytohormone cytokinin, buds are induced which grow by three- faced apical cells. These give rise to gametophores, stems and leaf like structures (bryophytes do not have true leaves (megaphyll). Protonema are characteristic of all mosses and some liverworts but are absent from hornworts. Protonemata of mosses are composed of two cell types: chloronemata, which form upon germination, and caulonemata, which later differentiate from chloronemata and on which buds are formed, which then differentiate to gametophores.
They have an apical apparatus (a region at the ascus tip that forms the spore-shooting mechanism) that stains blue in Melzer's reagent. The smooth, black ascospores are lined up in a single row, and feature drop-like appendages that are visible when still in the ascus. Measuring 15–19 by 11.5–12.5 μm, they are broadly inequilateral with one or both ends shortened, and lack a germ pore. In contrast to E. goetzii (the type species of Engleromyces), E. sinensis has smaller spores, and an apical apparatus that is T-shaped rather than cuboid.
This category includes findings that are minor and not suggestive of TB disease. These findings require no follow-up evaluation.. Chest x-ray of pleural thickening post-primary tuberculosis #Pleural thickening - Irregularity or abnormal prominence of the pleural margin, including apical capping (thickening of the pleura in the apical region). Pleural thickening can be calcified. #Diaphragmatic tenting - A localized accentuation of the normal convexity of the hemidiaphragm as if “pulled upwards by a string.” #Blunting of costophrenic angle (in adults)—Loss of sharpness of one or both costophrenic angles.
One of the defining character of Cleistoperidinium is its lack of an apical pore, a criterion Durinskia baltica does not fulfil. To rectify this mistake, Durinskia baltica, known then as Glenodinium balticum, was transferred into the subgenus of Orthoperidinium in 1937. Species within Orthoperidinium are characterized by their four-sided apical plate which is not a character of Durinskia baltica either. The taxonomic hierarchy changed, Durinskia baltica, referred as Peridinium balticum at the time, was transferred to the genus of Peridiniopsis (Bourrelly 1968) and renamed as Peridiniopsis balticum.
The forewings are ochreous yellow, with purple-black markings. There is a costal streak to the apical patch, and dorsal streak to about three-fourths. There is also a basal mark from which rise streaks above and below the cell diverging from a point and not reaching the middle, and a streak below the fold parallel to the lower of these. A large apical patch, the edge rather concave and running from the middle of the costa to the tornus, encloses a subcrescentic transverse ochreous-yellow streak before the apex.
The butterfly loosely resembles a small meadow brown, but the brown of the wings appears noticeably paler in flight. Unlike the meadow brown and other common members of the subfamily Satyrinae, the small heath is a lateral basker, only ever resting with its wings closed and angled at 90° to the sun. It more closely resembles Coenonympha caeca (forewing without apical spots), Coenonympha tullia (forewing apical spot smaller), and Coenonympha symphita (underside of hindwing without white spot and almost always with a complete row of spots on the forewing).
The forewings are dull ocherous, the ground color of the forewings gradually deepening toward the apex to a reddish-ocherous color in the apical third. There is a sparse sprinkling of dark brown scales over the wing surface and in the paler cilia. The markings are dark brown and the extreme base of the costa is dark brown. There is also an elongate spot near the middle of the costa and a larger triangular spot at the apical third of the costa reaching one-fourth across the wing.
The forewings are nearly uniform cinereous whitish with an ill-defined pattern, consisting of a more or less distinct triad of blackish stigmata in the cell and with an indication of five blackish submarginal strigulae in the apical area and elongate blackish strigulae tending to form a poorly defined, median, longitudinal shade extending from the base to the apical area. The hindwings are whitish, often tinged with grey. Adults have been recorded on wing from mid-April to mid-July. The larvae feed on Anaphalis margaritacea, tunneling into the unopened terminal buds.
The hydrostatic equilibrium model, viscous flow model and capillary equilibrium model are the three hypothesised models of circulation of pleural fluid. According to the viscous flow model, the intra pleural pressure gradient drives a downward viscous flow of pleural fluid along the flat surfaces of ribs.The capillary equilibrium model states that the high negative apical pleural pressure leads to a basal- to-apical gradient at the mediastinal pleural surface,leading to a fluid flow directed up towards the apex( helped by the beating heart and ventilation in lungs).Thus the recirculation of fluid occurs.
The neurogenesis of Berghia stephanieae is similar to that of other nudibranchs. The larval nervous system of Berghia stephanieae includes an apical organ, developing central ganglia, and peripheral neurons associated with the velum, foot and posterior part of the larvae. The first neurons containing serotonin and FMRFamide are observed during the early veliger stage (5-10% of development) in the apical organ. Slightly later, in the veliger stage (15% of development), peripheral FMRFamidergic cells appear in the posterior part of the larvae, and persist throughout metamorphosis into the early juvenile stage (30% of development).
The most proximal regions of CA3 pyramidal dendrites receive mossy fiber input exclusively, mid-dendritic regions (strata radiatum on the apical side and the oriens on the basal side) receive principally associational and Commissural fibers (from other CA3 cells), and the distal apical dendrites (stratum lacunosum-moleculare) receive input from the temproammonic afferents (from the entorhinal cortex). Mossy fiber input to CA3 exhibits different plasticity than that of typical long term potentiation because it is dependent on (or at least sensitive to) monoaminergic (see monoamine) activation of the cAMP 2nd messenger system.
CA1 pyramidal cells make up a homogeneous population which together with relatives in subiculum comprise the primary output cells of the hippocampal formation. Primary excitatory inputs are via glutamatergic CA3 Schaffer collaterals (both ipsi- and contralateral), which contact dendritic spines on the apical and basal dendrites in strata radiatum and oriens. Additional excitatory input is via the temporoammonic system which synapses on distal apical dendrites in the stratum lacunosum-moleculare. Imaging studies following localized changes intracellular calcium from discrete synaptic inputs have shown a role for these currents in synaptic plasticity.
The report pointed out that the thoracic cavity was not penetrated. # This bullet produced contusions both of the right apical parietal pleura and of the apical portion of the right upper lobe of the lung. The bullet contused the strap muscles of the right side of the neck, damaged the trachea, and exited through the anterior surface of the neck. # The single bullet theory of the Warren Commission Report places a bullet wound at the sixth cervical vertebra (C6) of the vertebral column, which is consistent with below the ear.
Radiograph images, before and after the procedure are used to evaluate the outcome of the treatment. The patients are scheduled to follow up at 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after the completion of therapy. The tooth is accessed for different aspects such as pain, swelling, sinus tract, mobility, tooth discoloration, and the occlusion relationship. At the 12-month follow-up, CBCT images are taken to analyze the root development, in specific to access for the disappearance of apical radiolucency, increase of root length or a decrease of the apical foramen, or both.
Adults are very similar to Ethmia hilarella, but can be distinguished by the absence of dorsal spots on the two basal segments of the abdomen, and the reduced or absent spots on the third segment. The hindwings in both sexes are as the hindwings of the female of E. hilarella, but with the apical patch wider and much more convex anteriorly, less produced beneath and not reaching the middle of the termen and the grey apical patch in the cilia is also reduced and does not reach the middle of the termen.
Urinary phosphate excretion was increased in both models by about 50%. Hyperphosphaturia in the Jentsch model was associated with decreased apical expression of the sodium/phosphate cotransporter NaPi2a that is the predominant phosphate transporter in the proximal tubule. However, NaPi2a expression is ClC-5-independent since apical NaPi2a was normally expressed in any proximal tubules of chimeric female mice, while it was decreased in all male proximal tubular knock-out cells. Serum parathormone (PTH) is normal in knock-out mice while urinary PTH is increased of about 1.7 fold.
The wingspan is about 12 mm. The forewings are dark brown with the costal edge from the basal third pure white. A white, thin, zigzag line runs from the middle of the costal edge obliquely across the wing to the apical third of the dorsum and there is a broad white streak parallel with and just before the apical and terminal edge, an indistinct darker brown spot on the middle of the cell and another similar one on the middle of the fold. The hindwings are dark fuscous.
The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are light brown with the costal edge narrowly vivid brick red. From the middle of the costa to the basal angle of the dorsum runs a darker, blackish-brown, nearly straight line and from the apical fourth of the costa to the apical fourth of the dorsum runs an outwardly evenly curved, blackish-brown line. At the end of the cell is a circlet of blackish-brown scales, enclosing a brown area, which is slightly lighter than the rest of the wing.

Apical abscesses can spread to involve periodontal pockets around a tooth, and periodontal pockets cause eventual pulp necrosis via accessory canals or the apical foramen at the bottom of the tooth. Such lesions are termed periodontic-endodontic lesions, and they may be acutely painful, sharing similar signs and symptoms with a periodontal abscess, or they may cause mild pain or no pain at all if they are chronic and free-draining. Successful root canal therapy is required before periodonal treatment is attempted. Generally, the long-term prognosis of perio-endo lesions is poor.
These types of nonlocal responses can be induced by long distance signaling. Long distance communication in plants must satisfy two things: First, signaling must occur rapidly to an apical area of the plant; Second, the signal must be perceived at the apical site and be converted to a physiological or thigmorphogenetic response. One form of long distance signaling is through hydraulic pulses from the roots to the shoots of a plant. Tree branches and stems contain microchannels that make up the xylem network and serve to carry water longitudinally.
The forewings are reddish ochreous, with the extreme of the costa black. There is a small black dot at the base of the wing and a large round black spot on the middle of the cell, as well as an ill-defined spot obliquely above this on the costal edge just before the middle.

Plant physiologists have identified four different stages the plant goes through after the apex is removed (Stages I-IV). The four stages are referred to as # lateral bud formation, # "imposition of inhibition" (apical dominance), # initiation of lateral bud outgrowth following decapitation, and # elongation and development of the lateral bud into a branch. These stages can also be defined by the hormones that are regulating the process which are as follows: Stage I, cytokinin promoted, causing the lateral bud to form since cytokinin plays a role in cell division; Stage II, auxin is promoted, resulting in apical dominance ("imposition of inhibition"); Stage III, cytokinin released resulting in outward growth of the lateral bud; and Stage IV, auxin is decreased and gibberellic acid is promoted which results in cell division, enabling the bud or branch to continue outward growth. More simply stated, lateral bud formation is inhibited by the shoot apical meristem (SAM).
The wingspan is 21–23 mm. The forewings are white with the base of the costa narrowly fuscous and with three triangular fuscous costal spots, one at the basal third, one near the middle, and one at the apical fourth.

An oblique dendrite is a dendrite that branches from an apical dendrite that emerges from the apex of a pyramidal cell. Oblique dendrites typically branch one to two times before terminating. Dendrites are extensions of the cell body of a neuron.
Cline HT. Dendritic arbor development and synaptogenesis. Current Opinion in Neurobiology 2001; 11: 118–126 The apical dendrites in these regions contribute significantly to memory, learning, and sensory associations by modulating the excitatory and inhibitory signals received by the pyramidal cells.
The stratum oriens is the location between layers containing basal dendrites. The stratum lucidum, stratum radiatum, and the stratum moleculare-lacunosum are layers of apical dendrites and are ordered from least distant to most distant from the soma of the neuron.
Apical buds of adult plants are edible, and are known as "palm cabbage" or heart of palm. They are considered a rare delicacy, as harvesting the buds kills the palms. Hearts of palm are eaten in salads, sometimes called "millionaire's salad".

The weak apical ligament lies in front of the upper longitudinal bone of the cruciform ligament, and joins the apex of the deltoid peg to the anterior margin of the foramen magnum. It is the fibrous remnant of the notochord.
Forewings slightly suffused with ochreous and more so with black. A white hook shape can be seen on the median nervure. There is a pale oblique apical streak, a series of black specks on outer margin. Hindwings are pale fuscous.
The endocones would also have sealed off the more apical chambers from the siphuncle limiting changes in ballast to the more forward, centrally located, chambers. The result is that changes in buoyancy would have had little effect on horizontal stability.
The microsculpture of the protoconch consists of prismatic crystals. The apical folds are fused. The rachidian and the lateral teeth of the radula lack cutting surfaces. They have one or several gill leaflets on the left side of the soft body.

The forewings are very narrow and cinereous, with a slight ochreous tinge towards the dorsal margin. The costa is sprinkled and shaded with fuscous, the fuscous shade widening towards the fissure, forming an elongate but indistinct triangular costal blotch. The apical portion of the wing is more or less shaded with fuscous, and a fuscous line is found along the base of the cilia on the apical margin, which are whitish at their points. The cilia within the fissure and those along the dorsal margin before the anal angle are white, the latter containing a few dark scales.
Previously, SLC26A6, another member of the same family of anion transporters as DTDST, was thought to provide the mechanism of oxalate- or formate-mediated chloride transport in this nephron segment; however, recent studies in Slc26a6-knockout mice have raised questions regarding its role in this transport process. In contrast, the apical membrane location, and electrochemical properties of SLC26A2 would fit the requirement of an anion exchanger located on the apical membrane of the proximal tubule that would serve as a mechanism of transporting chloride in exchange for oxalate, and/or recycling oxalate in exchange for sulfate.
The costal fourth of the wing, from the base to the apical fourth, is white with fuscous irroration and the extreme base of the costa and two or three small spots within the white area near the base are black. The white costal colour at the basal fifth and the middle projects obliquely and transversely as incomplete fasciae to or slightly beyond the fold. The white colour extends across the wing at apical fourth to the tornus as an ill- defined transverse fascia. The white costal area along the inner margin is irregular longitudinal olivaceous scaling.
Retrieved July 9, 2017.Moth Photographers Group at Mississippi State University The wingspan is 11.5–12.5 mm. The basal two-thirds of the forewings are light yellow, while the apical third is dark purplish brown with a slight touch of yellow on the costal edge before the apex. The limit between these two colors is oblique and sharply drawn, forming a straight line from the beginning of the costal cilia obliquely inward to apical two-fifths of the dorsal edge, the yellow reaching farther outward at the costa and the brown reaching farther inward at the dorsal edge.
The forewings are whitish, closely irregularly speckled with rather dark fuscous and with a cloudy spot of dark fuscous suffusion about the fold at one-fourth. The stigmata are represented by similar spots, the plical obliquely beyond the first discal, these rather elongate, the second discal rather transverse. There is a triangular spot of dark fuscous suffusion on the costa towards the apex, edged anteriorly by a white strigula and posteriorly by a white apical spot, and with suffused white subterminal and terminal shades from these crossing the wing. The apical and terminal edge are finely dark fuscous.
In the photoreceptors of the mammalian eye, the presence of light activates phosphodiesterase, which degrades cGMP. The sodium ion channels in photoreceptors are cGMP-gated, so degradation of cGMP causes sodium channels to close, which leads to the hyperpolarization of the photoreceptor's plasma membrane and ultimately to visual information being sent to the brain. cGMP is also seen to mediate the switching on of the attraction of apical dendrites of pyramidal cells in cortical layer V towards semaphorin-3A (Sema3a). Whereas the axons of pyramidal cells are repelled by Sema3a, the apical dendrites are attracted to it.
The forewings are light golden brown, at the basal fourth with an outwardly oblique white transverse streak, attenuated towards the dorsum and not quite reaching the dorsal edge. There is an equilateral triangular white spot on the middle of the costa and at apical fourth an inwardly directed triangular white spot. All of these white spots are marginal and continued across the wing by black and metallic-blue scales and terminate on the dorsal edge in small white spots. The apical and terminal edges are broadly velvety black with conspicuous tufts of metallic-blue scales around the margin.
The goblet cell is highly polarized with the nucleus and other organelles concentrated at the base of the cell and secretory granules containing mucin, at the apical surface. The apical plasma membrane projects short microvilli to give an increased surface area for secretion. Goblet cells are typically found in the respiratory, reproductive and gastrointestinal tracts and are surrounded by other columnar cells. Biased differentiation of airway basal cells in the respiratory epithelium, into goblet cells plays a key role in the excessive mucus production, known as mucus hypersecretion seen in many respiratory diseases, including chronic bronchitis, and asthma.
Unlike active articulation, passive articulation is a continuum without many clear-cut boundaries. The places linguolabial and interdental, interdental and dental, dental and alveolar, alveolar and palatal, palatal and velar, velar and uvular merge into one another, and a consonant may be pronounced somewhere between the named places. In addition, when the front of the tongue is used, it may be the upper surface or blade of the tongue that makes contact ("laminal consonants"), the tip of the tongue ("apical consonants"), or the under surface ("sub-apical consonants"). These articulations also merge into one another without clear boundaries.
Through early mouse development, cytocortical cingulin in present from oogenesis (cumulus-oocyte contact sites) until 16-cells morulae stage (apical microvillous zones) during early embryogenesis; then maternal cingulin is degraded by endocytic turn-over from the 32-cells stage. Regarding the zygotic cingulin, it accumulates at the tight junctions from 16-cells stage, 10 hours after ZO-1 assembly. Furthermore, the synthesis of cingulin in early mouse embryos is tissue-specific and it occurs in blastocyst (up-regulated in trophectoderm and down-regulated in inner-cells). In Xenopus laevis embryos, maternal cingulin is recruited to apical cell-cell junctions from 2-cells stage.
H. dillhoffi is a slightly larger species the H. maculosa, with an estimated total length in the males of and a fore-wing length of . The fore-wings are overall darkened in coloration and an apical region that has scattered hyaline spots. The hind wings are hyaline in the basal half, while the apical half is darkened and showing a single distinct hyaline spot in the upper area of the wing apex. The 6th abdominal segment seems to be missing spurs, possibly lost during preparation, but the angle formed by them is wider than those of H. maculosa.
Storey and collaborator Jason Swedlow have also pioneered innovative live imaging techniques for monitoring cell behaviour and signalling within developing tissues. These approaches led to the discovery of a new form of cell sub- division, named apical abscission, which mediates the differentiation of new born neurons Das, R.M. and Storey, K.G. (2014) Apical abscission alters cell polarity and dismantles the primary cilium during neurogenesis. Science 343, 200–204 Storey undertook post-doctoral research supported by a Harkness Fellowship with professor David Weisblat, at University of California, Berkeley 1987–88 and worked with Claudio Daniel Stern FRS at the University of Oxford 1990–1994.
Siphuncle segments are strongly inflated adapically, being globular to subglobular in form, and decrease in inflation toward the aperture with the more adoral segments being fusiform to subcylindrical. Apical septal necks are cyrtochoanitic to suborthochoanitic, those that are more adoral are short suborthochoanitic. Endosiphuncular deposits well developed, fusing to form a thick lining on the ventral siphuncular wall. The endosiphuncular canal system consists of a central canal that is dorsally displaced, from which extend nearly straight, narrow, branching canals, (recognized only in apical camerae) that connect to the ventral siphuncular wall from near the middle of the segments.
The following description is of a male specimen. Its face is black except for a brownish tubercle. Its thorax is black except for the yellow scutellum; the postpronotum is yellowish brown; the mesonotum is yellow pilose; the scutellum is yellow except narrowly black on the base; pleuron is gray pollinose; the calypter, plumula and haltere are orange. Its coxae and trochanters are black; its femora are black except becoming brownish to orange on the apical 1/4, and shiny except for the mesofemur, which is sparsely gray on its apical 2/3; tibiae are orange; tarsi are orange.
Pedinella is a genus of small, unicellular planktonic or attached, flagellated heterokonts first described in 1888 by A. V. Vysotskij. The genus is monospecific, and the single species is Pedinella hexacostata Vysotskij. Pedinella has an inverted bell or apple shape with a stalk arising from the posterior end, and has a single, long, ribbon-like, apical flagellum and, a second apical flagellum that is reduced to its basal body. The cells are radially symmetrical, with a large central nucleus, surrounded equatorially by a number of chloroplasts that cause the body to bulge out where the plastids are pushed up against the plasma membrane.
The antemedial line on the forewings is pointed apically on the anal vein and the medial line is black, pointed mesially on the radial, the cubital, and anal veins. The postmedial line is black, outlining the apical half of the discal area and the subterminal line is brown, jagged, bordering the lighter colored terminal area. The terminal line is scalloped outwardly at the termini of the veins and the apical margin is traced in lighter coloration. The reniform spot markings range from a white spot, to a thin white vertical dash, to a barely visible dash, or black.
Molecular analyses of the internal transcribed spacer region clearly separate the four species currently recognized in Volvopluteus, but morphological identification can be more difficult due to the sometimes overlapping morphological variation among the species. Size of the fruit bodies, color of the cap, spore size, presence or absence of cystidia and morphology of the cystidia are the most important characters for morphological species delimitation in the genus. Volvopluteus gloiocephalus has larger fruit bodies (cap more than in diameter), has pleurocystidia, and the cheilocystidia lack long apical outgrowths. V. asiaticus has pleurocystidia and has predominantly flask-shaped cheilocystidia without long apical outgrowths.
ENaC is located in the apical membrane of polarized epithelial cells in particular in the kidney (primarily in the collecting tubule), the lung, the skin, the male and female reproductive tracts and the colon. Epithelial sodium channels facilitate Na⁺ reabsorption across the apical membranes of epithelia in the distal nephron, respiratory and reproductive tracts and exocrine glands. Since Na⁺ ion concentration is a major determinant of extracellular fluid osmolarity, changes in Na⁺ concentration affect the movement of fluids and consequently fluid volume and blood pressure. The activity of ENaC in the colon and kidney is modulated by the mineralcorticoid aldosterone.
The forewings are stone-grey to half their length, then dark bronzy brown. There are several snow-white streaks on the outer half, one forming an oblique costal spot beyond the middle, a second small straight triangular spot before the commencement of the costal cilia, and a third above the tornus, divided by a dark line into two longitudinal streaks. In addition to these is an oblique apical streak, reduplicated in the apical cilia, a small length-streak below the outer end of the fold, and a shorter diverging streaklet above it. The hindwings are umber-brown.Biol. centr.-amer. Lep.
Endothelial tight junctions are most commonly found in the intercellular cleft and provide for regulation of diffusion through the membranes. These links are most commonly found in the most apical aspect of the intercellular cleft. They prevent macromolecules from navigating the intercellular cleft and limit the lateral diffusion of intrinsic membrane proteins and lipids between the apical and basolateral cell surface domains. In the intercellular clefts of capillaries, tight junctions are the first structural barriers a neutrophil encounters as it penetrates the interendothelial cleft, or the gap linking the blood vessel lumen with the subendothelial space2.
This model states that the orientation of the cleavage plane at the 8-cell and 16-cell stages determines their later differentiation. There are two main way in which blastomeres typically divide: symmetrically, meaning perpendicular to the apical-basal axis, or asymmetrically, meaning horizontal to the apical-basal axis. Many potential hypotheses and conjectures that attempt to explain why these cells orient themselves the way that they do. Some researchers have stated that early-dividing blastomeres tend to divide asymmetrically, while others have proposed that the orientation of 8-cell stage blastomeres is random and cannot be predicted on a larger scale.
Subcostal This view is obtained below the sternum and at the top part of the abdomen. In this view, the junction of the inferior vena cava with the right atrium is best seen. From this window, it is possible in some people to see roughly equivalent views of the apical four chamber and parasternal short views. In some people, this may afford these common views but at a subcostal window that may not be obtained through the parasternal and/or apical windows because of various reasons such as chest wall trauma, open wounds, or poor acoustic windows.
The wingspan is 21–24 mm. The forewings are light greyish ochreous with a broad blackish brown oblique fascia, this begins on the costa from the basal fourth to the middle of the costa and reaches to the middle of the dorsum. The edges are not even but reasonably parallel and sharply defined against the lighter basal and apical parts of the wing. At the apical third is an indistinct and ill-defined dark fuscous cloud parallel with the fascia and mainly noticeable by its outer edge, which appears as a dark, thin, undulating line from a small costal spot to the tornus.
The wingspan is about 22 mm. The forewings are dark violaceous brown with a round lemon yellow spot on the costal edge near the base, followed by a large reddish-yellow spot, edged by dark velvety brown scales. There is a small yellow dot within the middle of the dorsal edge, and some diffused reddish and dark-brown streaks on the cell. Two indistinct and suffused, whitish, zigzag lines are found across the wing at the apical third and the extreme costal edge, a small spot at the apical third of the costa and the extreme apex are all light yellow.
Sodium–hydrogen antiporter 3 also known as sodium–hydrogen exchanger 3 (NHE3) or solute carrier family 9 member 3 (SLC9A3) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SLC9A3 gene. SLC9A3 is a sodium–hydrogen antiporter. It is found on the apical side of the epithelial cells of the proximal tubule of the nephron of the kidney, in the apical membrane of enterocytes of the intestine, as well as the basolateral side of both duodenal and pancreatic cells responsible for the release of HCO−3 into the duodenal lumen. It is primarily responsible for maintaining the balance of sodium.
These cells receive information through extensive apical dendritic projections from parallel fibers that signal the transmission of an order to release an EOD. These cells also receive information from neurons conveying electrosensory information. Important to anti-Hebbian learning, the synapses between the parallel fibers and the apical dendrites of Medium Ganglion cells show a specific pattern of synaptic plasticity. Should activation of the dendrites by parallel fibers occur in a short time period preceding the initiation of a dendritic broad spike (an action potential which travels through the dendrites), the strength of the connection between the neurons at these synapses will be reduced.
The forewings are shining white, with faint brownish-ochreous tinge and with the extreme costal edge dark fuscous, becoming a dark brown streak on the apical third, towards the apex cut by an oblique wedge-shaped white mark, followed by two white dots edged black beneath, the last terminated by a black apical dot. There is a fuscous or brownish streak along the dorsum nearly from the base, becoming wider along the termen where it includes an oblique white streak before the tornus and a white mark or dot on the termen. The hindwings are grey.Exotic Microlepidoptera.
Descriptions of the coronal articulations can be inconsistent. The alveolar series t, n, l (or d, n, l) is straightforward: across the continent, these sounds are alveolar (that is, pronounced by touching the tongue to the ridge just behind the gum line of the upper teeth) and apical (that is, touching that ridge with the tip of the tongue). This is very similar to English t, d, n, l, though the Australian t is not aspirated, even in Kalaw Lagaw Ya, despite its other stops being aspirated. The other apical series is the retroflex, rt, rn, rl (or rd, rn, rl).
Endodontic treatment may fail for many reasons: one common reason for failure is inadequate chemomechanical debridement of the root canal. This may be due to poor endodontic access, missed anatomy or inadequate shaping of the canal, particularly in the apical third of the root canal, also due to the difficulty of reaching the accessory canals which are minute canals that extend in from the pulp to the periodontium in a random direction. They are mostly found in the apical third of the root. Exposure of the obturation material to the oral environment may mean the gutta-percha is contaminated with oral bacteria.
Male. Upperside yellow. Fore wing: veins along the costal margin broadly and apical half of those along the terminal margin narrowly black; a broad curved mark along the discocellulars, the apex and terminal margin more or less broadly also black, the last traversed by a series of spots of the ground-colour. Hind wing: apical half of the veins from 1 a to 8, subterminal zigzag and terminal slender lines, black, the subterminal line coalescing with the terminal along the veins. Underside: fore wing ground-colour yellow, getting paler towards apex, the veins conspicuously darker, the black discocellular mark showing through by transparency.
The ascus has a thickened apical ring that is capped by a hinged operculum, a lid that is opened when spores are to be released from the ascus. The presence of the apical ring beneath the operculum and the slanted opening that results is a condition known as "suboperculate", and is shared with Cookeina tricholoma and Phillipsia domingensis, also in the family Sarcoscyphaceae. The spores are scaphoid (boat-shaped), and have dimensions of 35–38 by 12–14 µm. They are marked with prominent longitudinal grooves, and when mature, are apiculate (ending abruptly in a short point).
In skin, it is seen within the basement membrane of the dermoepidermal junction at points of nerve penetration. However, it was also found that the gamma 3 is a prominent element of the apical surface of ciliated epithelial cells of lung, oviduct, epididymis, ductus deferens, and seminiferous tubules. The distribution of gamma 3-containing laminins along ciliated epithelial surfaces suggests that the apical laminins are important in the morphogenesis and structural stability of the ciliated processes of these cells. A recent study found that LAMC3 plays a critical role in forming the convolution of the cerebral cortex.
The forewings are light wood brown, shaded with deep brown on the costal half at the base and streaked with white and black. The subcostal vein is black irrorated (sprinkled) with white on the outer half and veins five to nine are indicated by black scaling. There is a transverse crescentic whitish fascia at the apical third and an indistinct black discal spot at the basal third in the cell, followed by a white streak. There is a series of ill- defined blackish spots from the apical third of the costa, around the termen to the middle of the inner margin.
The first cell division of a zygote is asymmetric, resulting in an embryo with one small cell (the apical cell) and one large cell (the basal cell). The small, apical cell will eventually give rise to most of the structures of the mature plant, such as the stem, leaves, and roots. The larger basal cell will give rise to the suspensor, which connects the embryo to the endosperm so that nutrients can pass between them. The plant embryo cells continue to divide and progress through developmental stages named for their general appearance: globular, heart, and torpedo.
The forewings are shining white with the extreme costal edge light yellow ochreous, at the base greyish, a very fine interrupted orange line from the costa at two-thirds to beneath two small orange spots on the costa near the apex. There is also a short fine black line on the apical edge, forming a small black spot at the upper extremity. There are three black dots on the lower part of the termen, the lowest enlarged into a small spot. The hindwings are white, with the dorsal hairs slightly ochreous tinged and the apical edge is pale greyish.
The forewings are lilac grey with an attenuated white costal streak from the base to about four-fifths and a direct transverse whitish line at one-fourth from this to the dorsum, as well as an extremely oblique strong black line from the middle of the costa to four-fifths, where it meets the apex of an incurved white line anteriorly edged with dark grey running to the dorsum at two-thirds. The apical and terminal edges are blackish, the apical preceded by white suffusion. The hindwings are grey, suffused with white towards the base.Exotic Microlepidoptera.
The forewings have a large blackish brown dorsal patch, reaching to the end of the cell. The costal area above this patch and terminal area beyond it are light ochreous and there is an elongate blackish brown costal streak at the apical third, edged toward the base with orange scales and apically with light rose-colored scales. These latter persist in a narrow band around the apex and include a dark brown subapical spot. A few rose-colored scales are also found below the costal spot and an indistinct and ill-defined orange streak crosses the apical light ochreous area.
The forewings are yellow orange with purple-blackish markings. There is a costal streak from base, terminating in a patch which occupies the apical two-fifths of the wing beyond a curved line from the middle of the costa to the dorsum before the tornus, except a curved ante-apical fascia of ground colour from near the costa at three-fourths to near the termen above the tornus. A subcostal streak is found from the base, sometimes reaching the posterior patch. The median and submedian streaks run from the base to near the middle, the median basally confluent with the subcostal.
Underside Upperside: black. Forewing: a broad oblique apical cell-bar and a curved subterminal series of somewhat hastate (spear-shaped) spots, white. Hindwing: apical two-thirds of costa and the termen broadly black, the rest of the wing yellowish white sparsely irrorated with black scales; the vermilion streak in interspace 8 on the underside shows through by transparency, and the broad terminal black border has a subterminal very obscurely marked series of whitish spots. Underside: forewing as in the male but the grey bordering restricted to very narrow streaks along the median vein and veins 2 to 4.
The ligament of apex dentis (or apical odontoid ligament) is a ligament that spans between the second cervical vertebra in the neck and the skull. It lies as a fibrous cord in the triangular interval between the alar ligaments, which extends from the tip of the odontoid process on the axis to the anterior margin of the foramen magnum, being intimately blended with the deep portion of the anterior atlantooccipital membrane and superior crus of the transverse ligament of the atlas. B: Apical ligament of dens It is regarded as a rudimentary intervertebral fibrocartilage, and in it traces of the notochord may persist.
There is a slender white line commencing at the base and following the costal margin, which is bent downwards and forms a sinuous outer edge to the basal patch, reaching the dorsal margin obliquely before the middle. Another slender white line which commences below the middle of the costa is sinuated outwards and downwards to the anterior edge of the dark apical fourth, where it meets a shorter, slender white line, which reverts obliquely to the dorsal margin. Along the extreme apical margin is a narrow whitish line enclosing a short series of black dots. The hindwings are grey.Proc. Zool. Soc. Lond.
In discussing the data obtained from the one 11 m tall white spruce, Fraser et al. (1964) speculated that if the photosynthate used in making apical growth in 1961 was manufactured the previous year, then the 4 million needles that were produced up to 1960 manufactured food for about 600,000 mm of apical growth or 730 g dry weight, over 12 million mm3 of wood for the 1961 annual ring, plus 1 million new needles, in addition to new tissue in branches, bark, and roots in 1960. Added to this would be the photosynthate to produce energy to sustain respiration over this period, an amount estimated to be about 10% of the total annual photosynthate production of a young healthy tree. On this basis, one needle produced food for about 0.19 mg dry weight of apical growth, 3 mm3 wood, one- quarter of a new needle, plus an unknown amount of branch wood, bark and roots.
Calcium entry into the cell causes more prolonged depolarization and increased action potentials. Usually curtailed by the hyperpolarizing local inhibition (due to the excitatory collateral system), this can lead to gradual recruitment of CA3 neurons and result in synchronized burst discharges. After hyperpolarization by calcium-dependent potassium conductance is also used as a method of controlling these bursts. Hippocampal CA3 pyramidal cells have complex dendritic arbors which receive a stratified pattern of synaptic input from a variety of sources, including: #the commissural/associational fibers from ipsi- and contra-lateral CA3 pyramidal neurons which synapse on both the basal and mid-apical dendrites in the stratum oriens and stratum radiatum #the mossy fibers from the granule cells of the dentate gyrus which synapse on the most proximal apical region, the stratum lucidum #the preforant path fibers from the entorhinal cortical pyramidal cells which synapse in the region of the most distal apical dendrites, the stratum lacunosum-moleculare.
