| mollusk venoms | Venoms from mollusks, including the conus and octopus species. The venoms contain proteins, enzymes, choline derivatives, slow-reacting substances, and several characterised polypeptide toxins that affect the nervous system. Mollusk venoms include cephalotoxin, venerupin, maculotoxin, surugatoxin, conotoxins, and murexine. (12 Dec 1998) |

| Mollicutes |
The Mollicutes are an unusual group of bacteria distinguished by the absence of a cell wall; a cell wall is found in most other groups. They are commonly called mycoplasmas, and are primarily parasites of various animals and plants, living within the host's cells. Individuals are very small, typically only 0.2-0.3 μm in size, and vary in form, although most have sterols that make the cell membrane somewhat more rigid. Many are able to move about through gliding. ...

| molecular formula |
A chemical formula (also called molecular formula) is a concise way of expressing information about the atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound. It identifies each type of element by its chemical symbol and identifies the number of atoms of such element to be found in each discrete molecule of that compound. The number of atoms (if greater than one) is indicated as a subscript. For non-molecular substances the subscripts indicate the ratio of elements in the empirical formula. ...

| molecular genetics |
Molecular genetics is the field of biology which studies the structure and function of genes at a molecular level. Molecular genetics employs the methods of genetics and molecular biology. It is so-called to differentiate it from other sub fields of genetics such as ecological genetics and population genetics. ...

| mol |
The Manned Orbiting Laboratory (MOL) was part of the United States Air Force's manned spaceflight program, a successor to the cancelled X-20 Dyna-Soar project. It was announced to the public on the same day that the Dyna-Soar program was cancelled, December 10, 1963. Also codenamed Dorian and given the designation KH-10, the MOL was intended to be a space station used for reconnaissance purposes. It was derived from NASA's Gemini program. ...

| molar |
Molars are the rearmost and most complicated kind of tooth in most mammals. In many mammals they grind food; hence the name, which means "millstone". Molars differ considerably from one species to another, so there are many terms describing them:*Tribosphenic: This kind is found in insectivores and young platypuses (adults have no teeth). Upper molars look like three-pointed mountain ranges; lowers look like two peaks and a third off to the side. ...
