| 31. | The arms are composed of articulating ossicles held together by ligaments, and the pinnules have a similar structure.
|
| 32. | These appendages are themselves formed of small ossicles called cirrals and the terminal one is often claw-like.
|
| 33. | When presented with a high-intensity sound stimulus, the stapedius and tensor tympani muscles of the ossicles contract.
|
| 34. | Like some other titanosaurs, ossicles have been found which are believed to represent dermal scutes that covered the skin.
|
| 35. | The physical characteristics of this order include well separated lateral plates, which expose the oral surface of radial ossicles.
|
| 36. | These small to medium-sized ossicles were actually embedded in the dermis and did not connect in a pattern.
|
| 37. | In the middle ear, dislocation of the bones that reside in the middle ear ( the ossicles ) can occur.
|
| 38. | They usually have short fleshy stalks and either two or three moveable ossicles forming a set of pincer-like jaws.
|
| 39. | This typically involves some form of mastoidectomy which may or may not involve removing the posterior ear canal wall and the ossicles.
|
| 40. | Ophiuroids have no ambulacral groove, and the radial canals instead run through the solid bone-like ossicles of the arms.
