| tungsten arc lamp | <apparatus> A lamp having highly compressed tungsten elements. (05 Mar 2000) |
| unipolar arc | <radiobiology> Arc between a metal surface and a plasma in contact with it. Such an arc requires only one electrode and is maintained by the thermal energy of the electrons. (09 Oct 1997) |
| flame arc | An arc between two impregnated electrodes that causes volatilization of the core with resultant flame. (05 Mar 2000) |
| longitudinal arc of skull | The line carried over the skull in the midline from the nasion to the opisthion. (05 Mar 2000) |
| alar lamina of neural tube | The dorsal division of the lateral walls of the neural tube in the embryo; it gives rise to neurons relaying afferent impulses to higher centres; in the adult such neurons compose the sensory nuclei of the spinal cord and brainstem. Synonym: lamina alaris, alar plate of neural tube, dorsolateral plate of neural tube, lamina dorsalis, wing plate. (05 Mar 2000) |

Synonym: lamina alaris, alar plate of neural tube, dorsolateral plate of neural tube, lamina dorsalis, wing plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| artificial neural net | Artificial Neural Nets (ANN) are computer models of biological nerve cell networks. (09 Oct 1997) |
| basal lamina of neural tube | The ventral division of the lateral walls of the neural tube in the embryo; it contains neuroblasts giving rise to somatic and visceral motor neurons. Synonym: lamina basalis, basal plate of neural tube, lamina ventralis, ventral plate of neural tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
