Afferent innervation patterns of the pigeon horizontal crista ampullaris.
The vestibular semicircular canals are responsible for detection of rotational head motion although the precise mechanisms underlying the transduction and encoding of movement information are still under study. In the present investigation, we utilized neural tracers and immunohistochemistry to quantitatively examine the topology and afferent innervation patterns of the horizontal semicircular ...
متن کاملA Scanning Electron Microscopic Study of Hypercementosis
The purpose of this study was to evaluate morphological characteristics of teeth with hypercementosis that are relevant to endodontic practice. Twenty-eight extracted teeth with hypercementosis had their root apexes analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The teeth were divided according to tooth groups and type of hypercementosis. The following aspects were examined under SEM: the cont...
متن کاملTongue structure in the long-eared hedgehog (Hemiechinus auritus): A scanning electron microscopic study
The aim of this study was to investigate the dorsal surface of the long-eared hedgehog tongue using scanning electron microscopy. The tongue of the long-eared hedgehog is rectangular-shaped with an elongated body and a widened root and a marked deep median groove can be seen on its dorsal surface. A characteristic feature of the lingual root is presence of two huge laterally situated folds. The...
متن کاملLingual Structure in the Domestic Pigeon (Columba Livia Domestica): A Light and Scanning Electron Microscopic Study
The aim of the present study was to investigate the light and electron microscopic structure of the tongue in pigeon. Three parts are distinguished in the dorsal surface of the tongue: the apex, the body and the root of the tongue. On the dorsal surface of the apex and body of the tongue a median groove is found. Large conical papillae are located symmetrically in the form of the letter U in th...
متن کاملLight and scanning electron microscopic study of the lingual structure in the budgerigar (Melopsittacus undulatus)
BACKGROUND: The tongue, which plays a very important role in food intake by vertebrates, exhibits significant morphological variations that appear to represent adaptation to the current environmental conditions of each respective habitat. OBJECTIVES: The aim of the present investigation was to investigate lingual structure in adult budgerigar. METHODS: Tongues of 12 adult budgerigars were used ...
