In the Monte region of Argentina, local population is causing severe habitat degradation by extracting native vegetation and domestic animal grazing. To assess whether disturbed environments have higher levels asymmetry than control environments, we examined morphological variation fluctuating in cephalic longtail whiptail lizard Aurivela longicauda (Teiidae) using a Procrustes analysis with ge...

two dimensional slope profile morphometric investigation in a part of the land failure prone garhwal region of the lesser himalaya, tehri district, u. p., india, indicates that the landslip morphology is closely related to the dominant movement processes active in this terrain. technique developed for the morphometric analysis of landslips involves the use of five morphometric indices. each ind...

Background: Small intestine and peripheral organs are the main organs for digestion and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract. OBJECTIVES: To investigate effects of different levels of Vitamin E and Selenium on growth performance and small intestine morphometry in Japanese quail. METHODS: A total of 405 mixed sex Japanese quails were randomly allocated into 9 experimental groups by 3×3 facto...

conclusion our results concerning cranium morphometry support the theory that hypoplastic posterior cranial fossa due to mesodermal insufficiency may play a role in the etiology of tonsillar herniation. results in individuals with tonsillar herniation, while the front-back diameter of the foramen magnum, the cerebellum height, and the sagittal diameter of the cerebellum increased, the maximum c...

The histopathological diagnosis of squamous cell hyperplasia of the larynx is very subjective. Since morphometry is highly reproducible, this method was applied to routine processed slides of 45 such lesions to assess objectively the epithelial characteristics. In each case measurements of nuclei of 50 cells in the basal, intermediate, and superficial cell layers were carried out. The data were...
