| first-order kinetics | A term describing the reaction rate of a chemical reaction in which the rate is proportional to the concentration (in moles) of only one of the reactants. Such a reaction might have an equation like rate = k[A], where k is the reaction rate constant and [A] is the concentration of a reactant A. (09 Oct 1997) |
| first-order reaction | A reaction the rate of which is proportional to the concentration of the single substance undergoing change; radioactive decay is a first-order process, defined by the equation -(dN/dt)=kN, where N is the number of atoms subject to decay (reaction), t is time, and k is the first-order decay (reaction) constant, i.e., the fraction of all atoms decaying per unit of time. See: decay constant, order. (05 Mar 2000) |
| first parallel pelvic plane | The upper opening of the true pelvis, bounded anteriorly by the pubic symphysis and the pubic crest on either side, laterally by the iliopectineal lines, and posteriorly by the promontory of the sacrum. Synonym: apertura pelvis superior, aditus pelvis, first parallel pelvic plane, pelvic brim, pelvic inlet, pelvic plane of inlet, plane of inlet. (05 Mar 2000) |

| first visceral cleft | <anatomy> The cleft between the hyoid and mandibular arches of the embryo; the external auditory meatus is developed from its dorsal portion. Synonym: first visceral cleft. (05 Mar 2000) |
| arterial arch of upper eyelid | Formed by communicating branches of the medial and lateral palpebral arteries. Often two arches are present, one located near the free border of the tarsal plate, the other along the upper border of the tarsus. Synonym: arcus palpebralis superior. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bones of upper extremity | The bones of the upper and lower arm. They include the clavicle and scapula. (12 Dec 1998) |
| bones of upper limb | These include the superior limb girdle (scapula and clavicle) and the skeleton of the free superior limb (humerus, radius, ulna, wrist bones, metacarpus, and bones of the fingers). Synonym: ossa membri superioris, bones of superior limb. (05 Mar 2000) |
| regions of upper limb | The topographic divisions of the upper limb: deltoid, arm, elbow, forearm, carpal region, and hand. Synonym: regiones membri superioris, regions of superior limb. (05 Mar 2000) |
| denture, complete, upper | A complete denture replacing all the natural maxillary teeth and associated maxillary structures. It is completely supported by the oral tissue and underlying maxillary bone. (12 Dec 1998) |
| quadrate muscle of upper lip | Composed of three heads usually described as three separate muscles; they are the caput angulare or levator labii superioris alaeque nasi muscle; caput infraorbitale or levator labii superioris muscle; caput zygomaticum or zygomaticus minor muscle. Synonym: quadrate muscle of upper lip. (05 Mar 2000) |
