In comparing the skulls of carnivores and herbivores, it can be seen that the shearing force of the temporalis is somewhat more important to carnivores, which have more room on the braincase ( this is not unrelated to carnivoran intelligence ) and commonly develop a sagittal crest ( running from posterior to anterior on the skull ), providing yet additional room for temporalis attachment.

The foramen magnum migrated under the skull and more anterior.

In most things, one or more flagella are located at or near the anterior of the cell e. g. Euglena.

On medical examination the head of the optic nerve can easily be visualised by a slit lamp ; however, frequently there is no abnormal appearance of the nerve head in optic neuritis ( in cases of retrobulbar optic neuritis ), though it may be swollen in some patients ( anterior papillitis or more extensive optic neuritis ).

The anterior splint, with contact at the front teeth only, may prove helpful to some patients, but for those patients who bite harder on this type of splint, even more damage may occur.

The cells have eyespots, more developed near the anterior, which enable the colony to swim towards light.

It was proven that the caudal part of the anterior cingulate cortex plays a more important function in cognitive activities that involve attention, salience, interference and response competition.

The basis behind this idea is the fact that a variation of certain tasks, Emotional Stroop tasks ( ES ), which have been particularly identified as exerting effects in OCD patients activate neurons in the more rostral part of the anterior cingulate cortex.

Computed tomography ( CT ) scan has been shown to be more accurate than radiographs in evaluating anterior interbody fusion but may still over-read the extent of fusion.

The anterior pituitary is typically divided into two regions, a more anterior rostral portion and a posterior proximal portion, but the boundary between the two is often not clearly marked.

For example, when one gene is lost the segment develops into a more anterior one, while a mutation that leads to a gain of function causes a segment to develop into a more posterior one.

The top of the bar not more than 3 cm below the top of the anterior deltoids.

The role of the thalamus in the more anterior pallidal and nigral territories in the basal ganglia system disturbances is recognized but still poorly understood.

Congenital cholesteatomas are more often found in the anterior aspect of the ear drum, in contrast to acquired cholesteatomas that usually arise from the pars flaccida region of the ear drum in the posterior-superior aspect of the ear drum.

This can be performed from the anterior ( front ) aspect of the spine by entering the thoracic or abdominal cavities, or more commonly, performed from the back ( posterior ).

The anterolateral papillary muscle more frequently receives two blood supplies: left anterior descending ( LAD ) artery and the left circumflex artery ( LCX ).

All-porcelain crowns are now becoming more and more common and work well for both anterior and posterior restorations.

There is evidence suggesting that the more the anterior cingulate cortex signals conflict, the more dissonance a person experiences and the more their attitudes may change.

Female transients are characterized by more triangular and pointed dorsal fins than those of residents.

At about the male's dorsal fin is more than twice the size of the female's and is more of a triangular shape — a tall, elongated isosceles triangle — whereas hers is shorter and more curved.

The authors proposed that both thin ( pain ) and large diameter ( touch, pressure, vibration ) nerve fibers carry information from the site of injury to two destinations in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord, and that the more large fiber activity relative to thin fiber activity at the inhibitory cell, the less pain is felt.

The more posterior of the two dorsal fins is much softer, and is thus called a soft-ray.

The dorsal hippocampal formation also has more place field neurons than both the ventral and intermediate hippocampal formation ( Jung et al., 1994 ).

Furthermore, the ventral hippocampus has less place field neurons than the dorsal hippocampus but more place field neurons than the intermediate hippocampus.

Although the species is widely regarded as sexually monomorphic, males have been suggested to grow more quickly, and in some naturally occurring strains, males are noted to possess dark blotches on the base of the dorsal fin.

However, a cladistic analysis of the forelimb skeleton found it highly similar to the Great Crested Grebe and unlike the Painted Buttonquail ( now known to be a basal charadriiform lineage ), the Black-necked Stilt ( a more advanced charadriiform ), or the Limpkin ( a member of the Grui suborder of Gruiformes ), namely in that its dorsal condyle of the humerus was not angled at 20 °– 30 ° away from long axis of the humerus.

The migratory stomatitis in the oral cavity mucosa and the geographic tongue that confined to the dorsal and lateral aspects of the tongue mucosa, are believed to be oral manifestations of psoriasis, as being histologically identical to cutaneous psoriasis lesions and more prevalent among psoriasis patients, although these conditions are quite common in the non-psoriatic population, affecting 1 % to 2. 5 % of the general population.

Once hatched, the young iguanas look similar to the adults in color and shape, resembling adult females more so than males and lacking dorsal spines.

However, the situation is more complex, since comparative embryology shows that the length axis of the neural tube ( the primordium of the brain ) has three internal bending points, namely two ventral bendings at the cervical and cephalic flexures ( cervical flexure roughly between the medulla oblongata and the spinal cord, and cephalic flexure between the diencephalon and the midbrain ), and a dorsal ( pontine or rhombic ) flexure at the midst of the hindbrain, behind the cerebellum.

This, the amniotic fold, first makes its appearance at the cephalic extremity, and subsequently at the caudal end and sides of the embryo, and gradually rising more and more, its different parts meet and fuse over the dorsal aspect of the embryo, and enclose a cavity, the amniotic cavity.

The " easiest " way to distinguish the two species is the fact that A. percula has 10 spines in the first dorsal fin and A. ocellaris has 11, which is a more reliable distinction than color patterns.

* The dorsal fin originates at the anterior of the caudal end of the operculum, the soft portion of the dorsal fin is more tall than long, the caudal fin is rounded and in adults it is an elongated upper ray, the anal fin originates below the soft portion of the dorsal fin, which it resembles in its rounded shape and being more tall than long.

Hominoids have more mobile shoulder joints and arms due to the dorsal position of the scapula, broad ribcages that are flatter front-to-back, and a shorter, less mobile spine compared to Old World monkeys, with caudal ( tail ) vertebrae greatly reduced, resulting in complete tail loss in living species.

They do not have a true dorsal fin, but do have a narrow ridge running along the back, which is much more pronounced in the narwhal.

Rail fins evolved into being and surged into popularity as riders ( Simon Anderson, most famously ) sought a solution to two major performance issues of a central " single " fin-both related to engagement of the foil: For one, a centrally-mounted fin is tilted up out of the water as the board is leaned over, and thus it loses more and more of its lift as the lean angle increases-if the lean angle is acute enough, the fin's tip can be the only area left in the water ; the tip may then rapidly stall and, having lost its lift, become disengaged from the water, leaving the board's bottom as the only control surface still operating.

Recent DNA analysis indicates certain rorquals of the family Balaenopteridae, such as the humpback whale, Megaptera novaeangliae, and fin whale, Balaenoptera physalus, are more closely related to the gray whale than they are to some other rorquals, such as the minke whales.

The study of English and European artifacts in general has revealed that projectiles were made with a widely variable number of microliths: in Tværmose there was only one, in Loshult there were two ( one for the tip and the other as a fin ), in White Hassocks, in West Yorkshire, more than 40 have been found together ; the average is between 6 and 18 pieces for each projectile.

Sexual dimorphism is slight, the male's caudal fin being more pointed.

The lobes of the caudal ( tail ) fin in muskellunge come to a sharper point, while those of northern pike are more generally rounded.

The main difference to K. minor is the longer anal fin of the Glass Catfish, which in the latter has more than 54 and up to 68 rays.

They gained momentum in the fin de siècle era, when a considerable number of renowned Slovene academians worked throughout Central Europe, while ever more numerous Slovenian students were enrolled in foreign-language universities of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, particularly in the Austrian and Czech lands ( Charles University in Prague or University of Olomouc, of which Slovene philosopher Franc Samuel Karpe became the rector in 1781 ).

For example, for the 19th-century fin de siècle, the most radical changes to the cultural and social order occurred more than a decade after the 20th century had started ( most notably as a result of World War I ).
