Within the genus Prunus, it is classified with the peach in the subgenus Amygdalus, distinguished from the other subgenera by the corrugated shell ( endocarp ) surrounding the seed.

The fruit of the almond is a drupe, consisting of an outer hull and a hard shell with the seed or " nut " ( which is not a true nut ) inside.

In Hinduism, the belief is that the body is but a shell, the soul inside is immutable and indestructible and takes on different lives in a cycle of birth and death.

The energy necessary to remove an electron from its shell ( taking it to infinity ) is called the binding energy.

However, if the excited atom has been previously ionized, in particular if one of its inner shell electrons has been removed, a phenomenon known as the Auger effect may take place where the quantity of energy is transferred to one of the bound electrons causing it to go into the continuum.

Within a shell where n is some integer n < sub > 0 </ sub >, ranges across all ( integer ) values satisfying the relation.

The thick inner layer of the shell is composed of nacre or mother-of-pearl, which in many species is highly iridescent, giving rise to a range of strong and changeable colors, which make the shells attractive to humans as decorative objects, and as a source of colorful mother-of-pearl.

The shell is generally ear shaped, presenting two to three whorls.

The last whorl ( known as the body whorl ) is auriform, meaning that the shell resembles an ear, giving rise to the common name " ear shell ".

By weight, approximately 1 / 3 of the animal is edible meat, 1 / 3 is offal, and 1 / 3 is shell.

The shell of the abalone is exceptionally strong and is made of microscopic calcium carbonate tiles stacked like bricks.

When the abalone shell is struck, the tiles slide instead of shattering and the protein stretches to absorb the energy of the blow.

The dust created through the grinding and cutting of abalone shell is dangerous ; appropriate safeguards must be taken to protect people from inhaling these particles.

Vickers of England naturally suspended royalty payments during the war ( Krupp held the patent on shell fuses, but back-payment was made in 1926 ).

Snail-like animals that naturally lack a shell, or have only an internal shell, are often called slugs, and land species that have only a very small shell ( that they cannot retract into ) are called semislugs.

It naturally follows that booby trap designs must be many and varied and for this reason the traps are often at least partially improvised from some item of ordnance such as an artillery shell, grenade, or quantity of high explosives.

The tusk shell is naturally open at both ends, and can easily be strung on a thread.

The iridescent nacre that lines the inside of the shell varies in color from silvery white, to pink, red and green-red, through to Haliotis iris, which shows predominantly deep blues, greens and purples.

South Sea pearls are the color of their host Pinctada maxima oyster – and can be white, silver, pink, gold, cream, and any combination of these basic colors, including overtones of the various colors of the rainbow displayed in the pearl nacre of the oyster shell itself.

The color of a turtle's shell may vary.

In Mario Bros., the color of a Shellcreeper's shell indicated how fast it was-green being the slowest, red being faster, and purple being the fastest.

When seen from above, the shell is darker in color and marked with irregular stripes, which helps it blend into the dark water below.

There are two main variations of egg shell color: green with olive markings or a paler background of grayish-white to green with red-brown markings.

The industrial design was changed as well as a new color scheme to a dark gray shell with silver trim and gloss black buttons.

Its skin is predominantly the same color as the shell, with reddish or peach colored markings around the neck and underside.

During incubation the shell color quickly wears to dull white.

Bits of shell covered with wax remained that color.

The various species of Pinctada produce different maximum sizes and colors of pearls, depending on the size of the species and the natural color of the nacre inside the shell.

This breed is named for the high sheen of the wool, commonly referred to as " satinized ," the hair shaft has a semi-transparent outer shell and reflects light, resulting in deep color, high luster, and extreme soft texture of its wool.

The shell is a dull gray and brown color.
