| venomous | 1. Full of venom; noxious to animal life; poisonous; as, the bite of a serpent may be venomous. 2. <zoology> Having a poison gland or glands for the secretion of venom, as certain serpents and insects. 3. Noxious; mischievous; malignant; spiteful; as, a venomous progeny; a venomous writer. <zoology> Venomous snake, any serpent which has poison glands and fangs, whether dangerous to man or not. These serpents constitute two tribes, the viperine serpents, or Solenoglypha, and the cobralike serpents, or Proteroglypha. The former have perforated, erectile fangs situated in the front part of the upper jaw, and are without ordinary teeth behind the fangs; the latter have permanently erect and grooved fangs, with ordinary maxillary teeth behind them. Ven"omously, Ven"omousness. Origin: OE. Venemous, venimous, F. Venimeux, L. Venenosus, fr. Venenum poison. See Venom, and cf. Venenose. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |

| transferases (other substituted phosphate groups) | <enzyme> A class of enzymes that transfers substituted phosphate groups. Registry number: EC 2.7.8 (12 Dec 1998) |
| plants | Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of the kingdom plantae. They are characterised by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localised regions of cell divisions (meristems); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absense of nervous and sensory systems; and an alteration of haploid and diploid generations. (12 Dec 1998) |
| plants, edible | An organism of the vegetable kingdom suitable by nature for use as a food, especially by human beings. Not all parts of any given plant are edible but all parts of edible plants have been known to figure as raw or cooked food: leaves, roots, tubers, stems, seeds, buds, fruits, and flowers. The most commonly edible parts of plants are fruit, usually sweet, fleshy, and succulent. Most edible plants are commonly cultivated for their nutritional value and are referred to as vegetables.

| plants, medicinal | Plants whose roots, leaves, seeds, bark, or other constituent possess therapeutic, tonic, purgative, or other pharmacologic activity when administered to higher animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| plants, toxic | Plants or plant parts which are harmful to man or other animals. (12 Dec 1998) |
| plants, transgenic | Plants into which genetic material from another species has been transferred. The technique most frequently applied makes use of a natural plant-directed gene vector, the gram-negative soil bacterium agrobacterium tumefaciens. A second system more analogous to those used for transforming mammalian cell lines is the direct transfer of DNA into plant protoplasts, for example by electroporation or polyethylene glycol treatment. (12 Dec 1998) |
| power plants | Units that convert some form of energy into electrical energy, such as hydroelectric or steam-generating stations, diesel-electric engines in locomotives, or nuclear power plants. (12 Dec 1998) |
| allergic contact dermatitis | A delayed type IV allergic reaction of the skin with varying degrees of erythema, oedema, and vesiculation resulting from cutaneous contact with a specific allergen. Synonym: contact allergy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| balancing contact | The contact's between upper and lower dentures on the balancing or mediotrusive side for the purpose of stabilizing the dentures, the contact's between upper and lower dentures at the opposite side from the working or laterotrusive side (anteroposteriorly or laterally) for the purpose of stabilizing the dentures, the contact's between upper and lower natural or artificial teeth at the opposite side from the working or laterotrusive side. Synonym: balancing occlusal surface. (05 Mar 2000) |
| centric contact | The relation of opposing occlusal surfaces which provides the maximum planned contact and/or intercuspation, the occlusion of the teeth when the mandible is in centric relation to the maxillae. Synonym: centric contact. (05 Mar 2000) |
| microradiography, contact | <microscopy> A method of making micrographs by means of X-rays. The specimen is placed close to a fine-grained photographic emulsion at some distance from the X-ray source. The X rays pass through the specimen and the differential absorption and the scattering of the radiation is recorded by the emulsion. The resulting negative is examined and photographed through a light microscope. (05 Aug 1998) |
| close contact infection | <epidemiology> An infection which requires close contact, other than sexual contact, between susceptible and infectious individuals, for transmission. (05 Dec 1998) |
| contact | A mutual touching of two bodies or persons. Origin: L. Contactus = a touching together (18 Nov 1997) |
