foramen magnum
|
UBERON_0003687 |
[In anatomy, in the occipital bone, the foramen magnum is one of the several oval or circular apertures in the base of the skull, through which the medulla oblongata (an extension of the spinal cord) enters and exits the skull vault. Apart from the transmission of the medulla oblongata and its membranes, the foramen magnum transmits the Spinal Accessory nerve, vertebral arteries, the anterior and posterior spinal arteries, the membrana tectoria and alar ligaments. [WP,unvetted].] |
|
obsolete motor nerve
|
UBERON_0001026 |
[A motor nerve is an efferent nerve that exclusively contains the axons of somatic and branchial motoneurons, which innervate skeletal muscles (that ensure locomotion) and branchial muscles (that motorize the face and neck)[WP].] |
|
diaphysis of radius
|
UBERON_0001028 |
[A diaphysis that is part of a radius bone[Automatically generated definition].] |
|
sella turcica
|
UBERON_0003689 |
[The sella turcica is a saddle-shaped depression in the sphenoid bone at the base of the human skull. [WP,unvetted].] |
|
abdominal cavity
|
UBERON_0003684 |
[The part of the ventral body cavity that is within the abdomen proper (excluding the pelvic cavity).] |
|
rotator cuff
|
UBERON_0003683 |
[A group of muscles and their tendons that act to stabilize the shoulder. The four muscles of the rotator cuff are over half of the seven scapulohumeral muscles.] |
|
obsolete cell body
|
UBERON_0001022 |
|
|
tooth socket
|
UBERON_0003686 |
[Dental alveolus (plural, alveoli) are sockets in the jaws in which the roots of teeth are held in the alveolar process of maxilla with the periodontal ligament. The lay term for dental alveoli is tooth sockets. A joint that connect the roots of the teeth and the alveolus are called gomphosis (plural gomphoses). In mammals, tooth sockets are found in the maxilla and the mandible. [WP,unvetted].] |
|
obsolete dendrite
|
UBERON_0001023 |
[The region of a neuron receiving inputs from other neurons, typically a slender neurite, often branched. In insect neurons, this is often not a clear designation and often presynaptic sites co-extend with postsynaptic ones.] |
|
obsolete neurite
|
UBERON_0001024 |
[One of the processes or extensions of a neuron, axon or dendrite or cell body fiber. // Cell appendage of the neuron which includes the axon and the dendrite.] |
|
obsolete regional part of lateral ventricle
|
UBERON_0027649 |
|
|
epidural space
|
UBERON_0003691 |
[The outermost part of the spinal canal. It is the space within the canal (formed by the surrounding vertebrae) lying outside the dura mater.] |
|
fused sacrum
|
UBERON_0003690 |
[A collection of sacral vertebrae in the sacral region that are fused and part of the bony pelvis.] |
|
obsolete synaptic ribbon
|
UBERON_0001030 |
|
|
acromioclavicular joint
|
UBERON_0003692 |
[Any joint connecting the acromonion of the scapula and clavicle.] |
|
sheath of Schwann
|
UBERON_0001031 |
[The outermost nucleated cytoplasmic layer of Schwann cells that surrounds the axon of the neuron. It forms the outermost layer of the nerve fiber in the peripheral nervous system. The neurolemma is underlain by the basal lamina (referred to as the medullary sheath in the included illustrations. In CNS, axons are myelinated by oligodendrocytes, thus lack neurolemma.] |
|
pubic symphysis
|
UBERON_0003699 |
[The firm fibrocartilaginous joint in the median plane between the two opposing surfaces of the pubic bones, which are united by an interpubic disc of fibrocartilage as well as the superior and arcuate pubic ligaments.] |
|
chordotonal organ
|
UBERON_0001038 |
[Chordotonal organs are arthropod sensory structures consisting of special sensilla called the scolopidia, which are mechano-transducers and respond mainly to stretch or flexion. In insects, they consist of bundles of internal sensilla, each of which has a cap cell, an enveloping cell and one or more sense cells. The distal end of the organ is usually attached to the cuticle of the body wall, marked by a pit, a thickened disc or a nodule of chitin, and the base of the organ is connected with the hypodermis, often by a special ligament.] |
|
atlanto-axial joint
|
UBERON_0003694 |
[The Atlanto-axial joint is of a complicated nature, comprising no fewer than four distinct joints. There is a pivot articulation between the odontoid process of the axis and the ring formed by the anterior arch and the transverse ligament of the atlas.] |
|
gustatory system
|
UBERON_0001033 |
[The sensory system for the sense of taste.] |
