Unlike any other tetrapod, turtles form their dorsal bony shell (carapace) not from osteoderms, but by contribution of the ribs and vertebrae that expand into the dermis to form plate-like shell components. Although this was known from embryological studies in extant turtles, important steps in ...
Note the similar (more horizontal) orientation of the ribs in these two specimens due to reduced rib torsion. Extended Data Fig. 4 Landmarks and semilandmarks of the ribs and thoracic vertebrae. a, Rib landmarks account for height, thickness and the 3D shape of the cranial and caudal ...
A ganglion is a group of neuron cell bodies in the periphery. Ganglia can be categorized, for the most part, as either sensory ganglia or autonomic ganglia, referring to their primary functions. The most common type of sensory ganglion is adorsal (posterior) root ganglion. These ganglia are ...

of the lungs rest upon a large, membranous-like muscle called the diaphragm, which forms the entire inferior aspect, or base of the thoracic cavity. It has its attachments along the entire lower margins of the ribs, both front and back, and plays a vital role in the action of breathing....

by morphological anatomy and by functional anatomy. It is located in the right upper quadrant of the abdomen, beneath the diaphragm, and is encased by the ribs. The liver maintains its position in the abdomen by attaching to the surrounding tissues with ligamentous attachments consisting of avascu...
The kidneys lie on either side of the spine in the retroperitoneal space between the parietal peritoneum and the posterior abdominal wall, well protected by muscle, fat, and ribs. They are roughly the size of your fist, and the male kidney is typically a bit larger than the female kidney....
