Dark bodies

Adult sawflies are small, inconspicuous, dark-bodied flies up to Vz in (1 cm) long. The larvae, which damage plants, vary in color from cream to green and brown and resemble moth or butterfly caterpillars. They range in size from /2 to 1% in (1.5-3 cm) long. (See also Caterpillars, for comparison.) The larvae feed on leaves, stems, and fruit of a wide range of plants. If infestation is severe, the plant is often reduced to a skeleton. See Apple sawfly. [Pg.337]

On Earth, manatees are large water mammals, popularly called sea cows. Their dark bodies taper to flattened tails. Their forelimbs are flippers set close to the head no external hind limbs exist. Their heads are small, with straight snouts and cleft upper lips with bristly hairs. These space manatees are similar to their Earthly counterparts. [Pg.158]

Remaining dark bodies (arrows) are mitochondria (Parmeggiani, unpublished, 1962). Fig. 2. Early phase of viscous metamorphosis.

Divine Wisdom is a Light and this Light is the Life of all Creatures, and Life is a Tincture, and this cannot be encountered fixed or constant in any way, but the metallic Nature. That is why the Sages followed this Light out of the occult Wisdom step by step, and they found it, in an unsightly dark body, where nobody would have easily looked for it. [Pg.50]

Fungal hyphae grow only at the tip and sometimes this tip growth has been seen as the hallmark of the fungal kingdom. In the light microscope a darker body can often be seen when the tip is actively growing. This dark body was named the spitsenkorper. We now know that this body is a collection of vesicles (Fig 1.5)... [Pg.6]

Al-Qadisiyyah is situated between the moat-canal [al-kbandaqf and al- Atiq. hi the area to the kft of it thne is a dark body of water in a deep valley with entangled vegetation. It extends as far as al-Hirah and runs between two roads. One is on high ground the other is on the bank a canal called al-Hudud- Whoever fcdlows it is able to see the... [Pg.48]

Dark body radiator (A > 3 pm) e. g., electric dark body radiators made of thin steel tubes with internal electric heaters and reflectors made of aluminum or ceramics, catalytic low temperature radiators using a catalytic reaction of gaseous fuel below the ignition point as a radiation source, gas-heated metal walls in the temperature range 500-800 °C or ceramic plates with temperatures up to about 1100°C... [Pg.352]

However, usually by the use of phase contrast light microscopy techniques, membrane aspects have been observed that hint towards submicroscopic structures of the fluid membranes. Examples are localized stable wiggles in tubular vesicles [12] and an abundance of tethers in many samples. Conflicting results in the context of the induced adhesion [18,19] suggested a fine superstructure of fluid membranes with an additional hidden area [20,21], superimposed on the well-known undulations [22], The existence of so-called dark bodies [23] in almost any of the lipid systems investigated and their formation processes (see below) implied the assumption that they are developed by the association of very small bilayer particles dispersed in the aqueous volume. Typical examples of dark bodies are shown in Figure 17.1 for DGDG. [Pg.245]

Dark bodies have sizes up to about 70 pm. They can be precipitated within minutes [23] in water chambers of highly swollen well-aligned multilayer systems. They... [Pg.245]

Figure 17.1 Phase contrast optical micrographs showing dark bodies of digalactosoyl-diacyl-glycerol (DGDG Lipid Products, Nutfield, Great Britain) in approximately 40 pm thick glass chambers . The sample was prepared in 50 mM NaCl solution. The left picture, taken during the formation process, exhibits dark bodies in coexistence with fluid membranes, whereas the right picture shows them numerously in a later phase.

DGDG is a mixture of lipids extracted ftom wheat flour. Dark bodies were abundant in many of the samples investigated, as well in systems of mixed lipids that had been extracted fl om namral tissue (egg PC, DGDG, cardiolipin, sphingon elin) and also for several synthetic and pure PC systems (DOPC, POPC). [Pg.245]

The Earth s Moon is the fifth largest satellite in the solar system. Its distance from the Earth is only 30 times the diameter of the Earth, the orbit is elliptical. The nearest distance to Earth (perigee) is 363 104 km, the largest distance (apogee) is 405 696 km. The semi major-axis is 384 399 km. The orbital period is 27 d 7 h 43.1 min which exactly corresponds to its rotational period. The orbit of the Moon is inclined to the plane of the ecliptic by about 5.1°. The mean radius of the Moon is 1737.1 km which is 0.273 that of the Earth s radius. The surface area is about 37 X 10 km. The density is relatively high and corresponds more to that of terrestrial planets and is 3.34 gcm . Our Moon is a relatively dark body with a surface albedo of 0.12. [Pg.99]
