| deep fascia | UBERON_0011236 | [Deep fascia (or 'investing fascia') is a layer of fascia which can surround individual muscles, and divide groups of muscles into compartments. This is the dense fibrous connective tissue that interpenetrates and surrounds the muscles, bones, nerves and blood vessels of the body. It provides connection and communication in the form of aponeuroses, ligaments, tendons, retinacula, joint capsules, and septa. The deep fasciae envelop all bone; cartilage, and blood vessels and become specialized in muscles and nerves. The high density of collagen fibers is what gives the deep fascia its strength and integrity. The amount of elastin fiber determines how much extensibility and resilience it will have.] |
| serratus dorsalis muscle | UBERON_0011217 | |
| intercostal nerve | UBERON_0003727 | [The intercostal nerves are the anterior divisions (rami anteriores; ventral divisions) of the thoracic spinal nerves from T1 to T11. Each nerve is connected with the adjoining ganglion of the sympathetic trunk by a gray and a white ramus communicans. The intercostal nerves are distributed chiefly to the thoracic pleura and abdominal peritoneum and differ from the anterior divisions of the other spinal nerves in that each pursues an independent course without plexus formation. The first two nerves supply fibers to the upper limb in addition to their thoracic branches; the next four are limited in their distribution to the parietes of the thorax; the lower five supply the parietes of the thorax and abdomen. The 7th intercostal nerve terminates at the xyphoid process, at the lower end of the sternum. The 10th intercostal nerve terminates at the umbilicus. The twelfth thoracic is distributed to the abdominal wall and groin. [WP,unvetted].] |
| spinalis cervicis muscle | UBERON_0011218 | [Origin: spinous processes of seventh cervical and sometimes two upper thoracic vertebrae; insertion: spinous processes of axis and sometimes of second to fourth cervical vertebrae; innervation: branches of cervical; action: extends vertebral column.] |
| longissimus lumborum muscle | UBERON_0011219 | [Lumbar muscle that extends and rotates the vertebral column.] |
| dorsal pelvic gland | UBERON_4300129 | [Cloacal glands that secrete into the dorsal roof of the cloacal tube and or the anterior cloacal chamber. Found in male salamanders.] |
| sacral rib | UBERON_4300128 | [Elements of the sacrum joining true sacral vertebrae to pelvis. [12th edition of Henderson's Dictionary of Biological terms]] |
| sacral region | UBERON_0005473 | [A subdivision of an organism along the anterior-posterior axis in the pelvic region immediately posterior to the lumbar region and anterior to the caudal region. Sometimes an intermediate region is defined between the sacral and caudal.] |
| nuchal crest | UBERON_4300127 | [Bony protuberance on the external surface of the occipital bone.[PHENOSCAPE:AD]] |
| tectorial restraint system | UBERON_4300126 | [Tectorial restraint system is a type of ciliary restraint system for hair cells in the inner ear. In tectorial restraint systems, the tectorial membrane restrains the cilia of the hair cells by attaching either directly to ciliary tufts or indirectly through various kinds of fibrous structure (simple fibers, fibrous strands, finger-like processes, tectorial plates). [Phylogenetic Relationships of the Lizard Families: Essays Commemorating Charles L. Camp. 1988. Eds. R Estes, GK Pregill. Stanford University Press]] |
| glossopharyngeal nerve foramen | UBERON_4300132 | [Foramen for the passage of the glossopharyngeal nerve IX. [PHENOSCAPE:WD]] |
| obsolete predominantly gray regional part of oculomotor nuclear complex | UBERON_0024528 | |
| lateral pelvic gland | UBERON_4300130 | |
| upper jaw symphyseal tooth | UBERON_4300135 | [Tooth of the upper jaw that is adjacent to the upper jaw symphysis. [PHENOSCAPE:WD]] |
| lateral commissure | UBERON_4300134 | [Region of the braincase which bears the facets for the hyomandibula in fishes. This region disappears in the origin of tetrapods and the space it occipied comes to contribute to the fenestra vestibulii. Clack, JA, 2001. Ch. 23, The otoccipital region. In Major Events in Early Vertebrate Evolution. Per Ahlberg editor.] |
| upper jaw symphyseal region | UBERON_4300133 | [ The region of the upper jaw on or near the midline. [PHENOSCAPE:WD]] |
| ora serrata of retina | UBERON_0011221 | [The ora serrata is the serrated junction between the retina and the ciliary body. This junction marks the transition from the simple non-photosensitive area of the retina to the complex, multi-layered photosensitive region. In animals in which the region does not have a serrated appearance, it is called the ora ciliaris retinae.] |
| lateral wall of oropharynx | UBERON_0035286 | |
| axillary tail of breast | UBERON_0035289 | [An extension of the tissue of the breast which extends into the axilla.] |
| left ear | UBERON_0035295 | [The organ of hearing located on the left side of the head[ncit,modified].] |
