sessile

The opercular valves of sessile cirripedes (rock barnacles) are, in every sense of the word, very important structures, and they differ extremely little even in different genera; but in the several species of one genus, Pyrgoma, these valves present a marvellous amount of diversification: the homologous valves in the different species being sometimes wholly unlike in shape; and the amount of variation in the individuals of several of the species is so great, that it is no exaggeration to state that the varieties differ more from each other in the characters of these important valves than do other species of distinct genera.

According to Utz (2007), living hosts often represent a suitable attachment site for peritrichs and other sessile organisms, because the water currents passing by the host can supply the epibionts with food particles and can facilitate the removal of waste material.

Of the broadleaves, priority has been given to local species such as sessile oak, Turkey oak, linden, birch, maple, and ash, which are well-adapted to specific conditions and are resistant to fire and natural disasters.

We reclassified 1 mucosal prolapse, 1 hyperplastic polyp, and 1 inflammatory polyp, as leiomyoma, sessile serrated adenoma, and tubular adenoma, respectively.

These microorganisms adapt to stressful environments by attaching to abiotic surfaces and forming a biofilm--a highly structured community of sessile cells embedded within a matrix of extracellular polymeric substance--and biofilm formation plays a critical role in colonization of catheters.

As a result, the balance tipped in favour of the less-dominant species, the more drought-tolerant sessile oak, the researchers from the University of Stirling and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC) found.

The eight papers in this collection survey current knowledge on evaporative self-assembly, drying a sessile droplet to form a pattern, the convective assembly process, dip coating, breath figure template assembly, and surface controlled dewetting.

1 and 2) showed multiple sessile polypoidal lesions (arrows) of varying sizes seen in jejunal loops.

Sessile House at Naturally Woodlands, Brynna, is one of four properties currently available in the first stage of the development.

Based on prescribed time-course schedules, biostuds are periodically removed and transported to a laboratory where the sessile bacterial strains infesting the internal line are identified and characterized.
