| elastic cone | Thicker lower portion of the elastic membrane of the larynx, extending between the cricoid cartilage and the vocal ligaments, the latter actually being a thickening of the free, superior margin of the conus elasticus. Synonym: cricovocal membrane, elastic cone. Synonym: cricothyroid ligament. (05 Mar 2000) |

| elastic fibres | Fibre's that are 0.2 to 2 um in diameter but may be larger in some ligaments; they branch and anastomose to form networks and fuse to form fenestrated membranes; the fibre's and membranes consist of microfibrils about 10 nm wide and an amorphous substance containing elastin. Synonym: yellow fibres. (05 Mar 2000) |
| elastic lamella | A thin sheet or membrane composed of elastic fibres; distinguished from elastic membrane, which usually refers to a condensed mass of fibres, as in an artery, whereas an elastic lamella may be a looser elastic layer such as found in a vein or the respiratory tract.

| elastic ligature | A rubber ligature that slowly constricts, in orthodontics, a stretchable threadlike material that may be tied from a tooth to an archwire or from tooth to tooth to gain movement of these units. (05 Mar 2000) |
| elastic limit | The greatest stress to which a material may be subjected and still be capable of returning to its original dimensions when the forces are released. (05 Mar 2000) |
| elastic membrane | A membrane formed of elastic connective tissue, present as fenestrated lamellae in the coats of the arteries and elsewhere. (05 Mar 2000) |
| elastic skin | |
| elastic tissue | A form of connective tissue in which the elastic fibres predominate; it constitutes the ligamenta flava of the vertebrae and the ligamentum nuchae, especially of quadrupeds; it occurs also in the walls of the arteries and of the bronchial tree, and connects the cartilages of the larynx. Synonym: elastica, tela elastica. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior part of anterior commissure of brain | The anterior part of the anterior or rostral commissure of the brain. Synonym: pars anterior commissurae rostralis, pars anterior commissurae anterioris cerebri. (05 Mar 2000) |
| A layer | <molecular biology> Right handed double helical DNA with approximately 11 residues per turn. Planes of base pairs in the helix are tilted 20 deg away from perpendicular to the axis of the helix. Formed from B DNA by dehydration. (18 Nov 1997) |
| ameloblastic layer | The internal layer of the enamel organ. Synonym: enamel layer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bacillary layer | The layer of the retina next to the pigment layer and containing the visual receptors. See: retina, granular layers of retina, neuroepithelial layer of retina. Synonym: bacillary layer. (05 Mar 2000) |
| basal cell layer | The deepest layer of the epidermis, composed of dividing stem cells and anchoring cells. Synonym: basal cell layer, columnar layer, germinative layer, palisade layer, stratum basale, stratum cylindricum, stratum germinativum. (05 Mar 2000) |
