The ciliary bodies from four rhesus monkey and six human eyes were subdivided into eight adjacent zones. The morphology of the ciliary epithelium and bordering stroma at the crests of the processes was examined electron microscopically in each region. In two of the monkey eyes (3 months and 18 years old) and in two of the human eyes (18 years and 55 years old) profiles of mitochondria, rough en...

the main issues about relation between climate and relief in the romanian geomorphological literature follow three directions of research: the description of pleistocene glacial and pleistocene-holocene periglacial landforms in the carpathians; the direct analysis of climate?s role in landform development; the integration of separate works and findings in a synthetic morphodynamic system applic...

 Events leading up to the release of toxic chemicals in the processing plants are one of the main hazards of chemical industries that can endanger employees and also people in neighborhood. In this study, DOW's Chemical Exposure Index (CEI) is used to determine hazard distances of possible toxic chemical releases in one of the South Pars gas refineries. To...

ionospheric slab thickness is defined as the ratio of tec to maximum electron density of the f-region (nmf2), proportional to the square of the f2-layer critical frequency (fof2). it is an important parameter in that it is linearly correlated with scale height of the ionosphere, which is related to electron density profile. it also reflects variation of the neutral temperature. therefore, ionos...

the aim of the study was to assess regional differences in selenium content in the environment based on analysis of the se concentrations in liver and kidney of red deer from central, northern, south-eastern and south-western poland. the level of selenium in organs was determined using spectrofluorometric methods. the mean concentration of selenium in the liver and kidney of red deer was 0.084 ...

BACKGROUND South Pars special economic energy zone is the world's second largest gas reservoir that was established two decades ago. High incidence of social harms is observed in this region due to various problems such as drug addiction which is of high prevalence. OBJECTIVES The current study aimed at finding the strategies to prevent drug abuse and formulating policies in the region. MAT...

A new genus and five new species of digeneans are reported from fishes at hydrothermal vent sites in the South East Pacific Rise region. Biospeedotrema n. gen. (Opecoelidae: Stenakrinae) is distinguished from other stenakrines by the more or less symmetrical testicular configuration, with the uterus passing between the testes, sometimes distinctly into the post-testicular region. Biospeedotrema...

Aim To understand better the representation of arctic tundra vegetation by pollen data, we analysed pollen assemblages and pollen accumulation rates (PARs) in the surface sediments of lakes. Location Modern sediment samples were collected from seventy-eight lakes located in the Arctic Foothills and Arctic Coastal Plain regions of northern Alaska. Methods For seventy of the lakes, we analysed po...

The A-V node, bundle and bundle branches were grossly dissected in 41 human hearts. The method for this dissection is described. Given also are the sizes of the individual structures with advancing age. These structures grow more slowly than the remainder of the myocardium. T HE dissectability of the A-V node, bundle, and bundle branches in the human heart has been questioned. Retzer1 originall...
