| plant root cap | A cone-shaped structure in plants made up of a mass of meristematic cells that covers and protects the tip of a growing root. It is the putative site of gravity sensing in plant roots. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cradle cap | <dermatology> A form of seborrheic dermatitis of the scalp in infants that is characterised by flaky or scaly skin which may be reddened. May involve the skin on the nose, eyebrows, scalp, ears and skin of the trunk (in skin folds). A weak 0.5% hydrocortisone cream can be effective in controlling this problem. (27 Sep 1997) |
| head cap | A collapsed membranous vesicle that covers the anterior part of the nucleus of the spermatozoon, derived from the acrosomal granule; the carbohydrate-rich substance of the cap is associated with hydrolytic enzymes that aid in sperm penetration of the zona pellucida of the ovum. Synonym: head cap. (05 Mar 2000) |

| knee cap dislocation | <orthopaedics> A dislocation of the knee cap most often occurs with the knee cap moving laterally (toward the outer aspect of the leg). Features include a partially flexed knee joint with obvious displacement of the knee cap laterally. Reduction is accomplished with knee joint extension and gently coaxing the knee cap back to the midline. (17 Dec 1997) |
| acetylserotonin n-methyltransferase | <enzyme> An enzyme that catalyses the transfer of a methyl group from s-adenosylmethionine to n-acetylserotonin to form n-acetyl-5-methoxytryptamine (melatonin). Chemical name: S-Adenosyl-L-methionine:N-acetylserotonin O-methyltransferase Registry number: EC 2.1.1.4 (12 Dec 1998) |
