Abdomen
The abdomen (colloquially called the belly, tummy, midriff, tucky or stomach) is the part of the body between the thorax (chest) and pelvis, in humans and in other vertebrates. Plate (anatomy) and abdomen are animal anatomy.
See Plate (anatomy) and Abdomen
Alar plate
The alar plate (or alar lamina) is a neural structure in the embryonic nervous system, part of the dorsal side of the neural tube, that involves the communication of general somatic and general visceral sensory impulses.
See Plate (anatomy) and Alar plate
Anatomical terms of location
Standard anatomical terms of location are used to unambiguously describe the anatomy of animals, including humans. Plate (anatomy) and anatomical terms of location are animal anatomy.
See Plate (anatomy) and Anatomical terms of location
Anatomy
Anatomy is the branch of morphology concerned with the study of the internal structure of organisms and their parts.
See Plate (anatomy) and Anatomy
Armadillo
Armadillos (little armored ones) are New World placental mammals in the order Cingulata.
See Plate (anatomy) and Armadillo
Armour (zoology)
Armour or armor in animals is a rigid cuticle or exoskeleton that provides exterior protection against attack by predators, formed as part of the body (rather than the behavioural utilization of external objects for protection) usually through the thickening and hardening of superficial tissues, outgrowths or skin secretions. Plate (anatomy) and Armour (zoology) are animal anatomy.
See Plate (anatomy) and Armour (zoology)
Basal plate
Basal plate may refer to.
See Plate (anatomy) and Basal plate
Carapace
A carapace is a dorsal (upper) section of the exoskeleton or shell in a number of animal groups, including arthropods, such as crustaceans and arachnids, as well as vertebrates, such as turtles and tortoises. Plate (anatomy) and carapace are animal anatomy.
See Plate (anatomy) and Carapace
Cribriform plate
In mammalian anatomy, the cribriform plate (Latin for lit. sieve-shaped), horizontal lamina or lamina cribrosa is part of the ethmoid bone.
See Plate (anatomy) and Cribriform plate
Dermal bone
A dermal bone or investing bone or membrane bone is a bony structure derived from intramembranous ossification forming components of the vertebrate skeleton, including much of the skull, jaws, gill covers, shoulder girdle, fin rays (lepidotrichia), and the shells of turtles and armadillos.
See Plate (anatomy) and Dermal bone
Epiphyseal plate
The epiphyseal plate, epiphysial plate, physis, or growth plate is a hyaline cartilage plate in the metaphysis at each end of a long bone.
See Plate (anatomy) and Epiphyseal plate
Flat bone
Flat bones are bones whose principal function is either extensive protection or the provision of broad surfaces for muscular attachment.
See Plate (anatomy) and Flat bone
Gasterosteoidei
Gasterosteoidei is a suborder of ray-finned fishes that includes the sticklebacks and relatives, the 5th edition of Fishes of the World classifies this suborder within the order Scorpaeniformes.
See Plate (anatomy) and Gasterosteoidei
Human body
The human body is the entire structure of a human being.
See Plate (anatomy) and Human body
Nail (anatomy)
A nail is a protective plate characteristically found at the tip of the digits (fingers and toes) of all primates, corresponding to the claws in other tetrapod animals.
See Plate (anatomy) and Nail (anatomy)
Ostracoderm
Ostracoderms are the armored jawless fish of the Paleozoic Era.
See Plate (anatomy) and Ostracoderm
Pangolin
Pangolins, sometimes known as scaly anteaters, are mammals of the order Pholidota.
See Plate (anatomy) and Pangolin
Perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone
The perpendicular plate of the ethmoid bone (vertical plate) is a thin, flattened lamina, polygonal in form, which descends from the under surface of the cribriform plate, and assists in forming the septum of the nose; it is generally deflected a little to one or other side.
See Plate (anatomy) and Perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone
Pineal gland
The pineal gland (also known as the pineal body or epiphysis cerebri) is a small endocrine gland in the brain of most vertebrates.
See Plate (anatomy) and Pineal gland
Placoderm
Placoderms (from Greek πλάξ (plax, plakos) 'plate' and δέρμα (derma) 'skin') are vertebrate animals of the class Placodermi, an extinct group of prehistoric fish known from Paleozoic fossils during the Silurian and the Devonian periods.
See Plate (anatomy) and Placoderm
Plate
Plate may refer to.
Pteraspidomorphi
Pteraspidomorphi is an extinct class of early jawless fish.
See Plate (anatomy) and Pteraspidomorphi
Pterygoid processes of the sphenoid
The pterygoid processes of the sphenoid (from Greek pteryx, pterygos, "wing"), one on either side, descend perpendicularly from the regions where the body and the greater wings of the sphenoid bone unite.
See Plate (anatomy) and Pterygoid processes of the sphenoid
Rostrum (anatomy)
Rostrum (from Latin rostrum, meaning beak) is a term used in anatomy for a number of phylogenetically unrelated structures in different groups of animals. Plate (anatomy) and rostrum (anatomy) are animal anatomy and animal anatomy stubs.
See Plate (anatomy) and Rostrum (anatomy)
Scale (zoology)
In zoology, a scale (lepís; squāma) is a small rigid plate that grows out of an animal's skin to provide protection. Plate (anatomy) and scale (zoology) are animal anatomy.
See Plate (anatomy) and Scale (zoology)
Sclerite
A sclerite (Greek σκληρός, sklēros, meaning "hard") is a hardened body part.
See Plate (anatomy) and Sclerite
Scute
A scute or scutum (Latin: scutum; plural: scuta "shield") is a bony external plate or scale overlaid with horn, as on the shell of a turtle, the skin of crocodilians, and the feet of birds. Plate (anatomy) and scute are animal anatomy.
Skull
The skull is a bone protective cavity for the brain.
Thorax
The thorax (thoraces or thoraxes) or chest is a part of the anatomy of mammals and other tetrapod animals located between the neck and the abdomen. Plate (anatomy) and thorax are animal anatomy.
See Plate (anatomy) and Thorax
Tooth
A tooth (teeth) is a hard, calcified structure found in the jaws (or mouths) of many vertebrates and used to break down food. Plate (anatomy) and tooth are animal anatomy.
Turtle
Turtles are reptiles of the order Testudines, characterized by a special shell developed mainly from their ribs.
See Plate (anatomy) and Turtle
Turtle shell
The turtle shell is a shield for the ventral and dorsal parts of turtles (the order Testudines), completely enclosing all the vital organs of the turtle and in some cases even the head.
See Plate (anatomy) and Turtle shell
Zygomatic plate
In rodent anatomy, the zygomatic plate is a bony plate derived from the flattened front part of the zygomatic arch (cheekbone).
See Plate (anatomy) and Zygomatic plate
