| vertical plate | Flat portion of a bone which lies within or closely approximates a vertical plane. See: perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone, perpendicular plate of palatine bone. Synonym: lamina perpendicularis, pars perpendicularis, vertical plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| visceral plate | The inner of the two layers of the lateral mesoderm; the splanchnic mesoderm that becomes associated with the endoderm and together with it constitutes the splanchnopleure. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial plate of pterygoid process | The smaller and more medial of the two bony plates extending downward from the point of union of the body and greater wing of the sphenoid bone on either side. Ending inferiorly in the pterygoid hamulus. Synonym: lamina medialis processus pterygoidei, medial plate of pterygoid process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial pterygoid plate | The smaller and more medial of the two bony plates extending downward from the point of union of the body and greater wing of the sphenoid bone on either side. Ending inferiorly in the pterygoid hamulus. Synonym: lamina medialis processus pterygoidei, medial plate of pterygoid process. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cell plate | <plant biology> Region in which the new cell wall forms after the division of a plant cell. In the plane of the equator of the spindle a disc like structure, the phragmoplast forms, into which are inserted pole derived microtubules. Golgi derived vesicles containing pectin come together and fuse at the plate which develops from the centre outwards and eventually fuses with the plasma membrane thereby separating the daughter cells. (26 Mar 1998) |
| replica plate | A technique in which the pattern of bacterial colonies on a culture plate is copied using sterile filter paper, and then the paper is pressed against a second sterile plate. The new plate is infected with cells in the same relative positions as the colonies in the original plate. Usually the new plate is tested quite destructively for some property. The ones with the best result are identified, and the corresponding group of organisms on the original plate can be identified because they are in the equivalent place. (14 Nov 1997) |
| medullary plate | <embryology> A region of embryonic ectodermal cells, called neuroectoderm, that lie directly above the notochord. During neurulation, they change shape, so as to produce an infolding of the neural plate (the neural fold) that then seals to form the neural tube. (04 Jul 1999) |
| retardation plate | <optics> A plate placed in the path of a beam of polarized light for the purpose of introducing a difference in phase. Usually a quarter-wave plate and a first-order red plate are furnished with a polarizing microscope. See: quartz wedge, compensator. (10 Mar 1998) |
| perpendicular plate | Flat portion of a bone which lies within or closely approximates a vertical plane. See: perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone, perpendicular plate of palatine bone. Synonym: lamina perpendicularis, pars perpendicularis, vertical plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| perpendicular plate of ethmoid bone | A thin plate of bone projecting downward from the crista galli of the ethmoid; it forms part of the nasal septum. Synonym: lamina perpendicularis ossis ethmoidalis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| perpendicular plate of palatine bone | The part of the palatine bone that extends vertically upward from the horizontal lamina; it forms part of the lateral wall of the nasal cavity. Synonym: lamina perpendicularis ossis palatini. (05 Mar 2000) |
| metaphase plate | <cell biology> The plane of the spindle approximately equidistant from the two poles along which the chromosomes are lined up during mitosis or meiosis. Also termed the equator. (18 Nov 1997) |
| growth plate | <physiology> The area between the epiphysis and the diaphysis within which bone growth occurs. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chorionic plate | That portion of the chorionic wall in the region of its uterine attachment; it consists of the mesoderm that lines the chorionic vesicle and, on the maternal side, of the trophoblast that lines the intervillous spaces; in the last half of gestation, the mesodermal connective tissue is largely replaced by fibrinoid material, and the amniotic membrane is adherent to the foetal side of the plate. (05 Mar 2000) |
| roof plate | The thin layer of the embryonic neural tube connecting the alar plate's dorsally. Synonym: dorsal plate of neural tube. (05 Mar 2000) |
