tubule

To explore how the tubules evolved, the team examined hormone signals in a dozen other beetle species.

Fruit flies use four of these tubules to filter their blood-like fluid.

In 2016 a group at Harvard’s Lewis Lab used 3D printing to re-create the nephrons’ tubules, complete with a vascular network for blood flow—but they only stayed alive for a little over two months.

But if the lymph capillary is a closed tubule at its commencement this does not follow.

The fine chitinous tubule is especially conspicuous in connection with these largest goblets.

Inner and outer aperture of the tubule of the same size; their diameter equal to their length and distance.

Foraminal tubule stout, cylindrical, usually somewhat contorted; its orifice irregular in outline.

This tubule, which does not extend beyond the surface of the cellular coat, is liable to be broken off in dried specimens.
