Cusps

Cusps and horns form where incoming waves divide, depositing sand as horns and scouring out sand to form cusps.

The denticles have multiple cusps and overlap in M. birostris, while those of M. alfredi are evenly spaced and lack cusps.

When looked at two-dimensionally, soft cells are curved with two pinched corners known as cusps.

As opposed to infective endocarditis, the vegetations in NBTE are small, sterile, and tend to aggregate along the edges of the valve or the cusps.

Eventually, the cusps disappear completely and the animal will die of starvation. citation Koalas have few predators; dingos and large pythons may prey on them, while birds of prey (such as powerful owls and wedge-tailed eagles ) are threats to young.

Geologists attribute the arcuate structure to the rigidity of the descending plate, and island arc cusps relate to tears in the descending lithosphere.

In addition to all these, a weak glow (often deep red) observed around the two polar cusps, the field lines separating the ones that close through the Earth from those that are swept into the tail and close remotely.

In contrast, the camels and ruminants have bumps that are crescent-shaped cusps ( selenodont ).

It consists of the word "Steelers" surrounded by three astroids ( hypocycloids of four cusps ).

Its teeth had several pointed cusps, which wore down from use.

Schröter found when the planet was a thin crescent, the cusps extended through more than 180°.

The cusps of the magnetosphere, separating geomagnetic field lines that close through the Earth from those that close remotely allow a small amount of solar wind to directly reach the top of the atmosphere, producing an auroral glow.

The tricuspid valve has three cusps,sfn which connect to chordae tendinae and three papillary muscles named the anterior, posterior, and septal muscles, after their relative positions.sfn The mitral valve lies between the left atrium and left ventricle.

This creates tension on the chordae tendineae, helping to hold the cusps of the atrioventricular valves in place and preventing them from being blown back into the atria.

This has three cusps which are not attached to any papillary muscles.

This too has three cusps which close with the pressure of the blood flowing back from the aorta.
