Because testis and deferent duct widths vary along the length of both organs, the width of each organ was measured at three locations per individual, the 25%, 50%, and 75% points along the length.
To compare the expression breadth of imprinted genes and their paralogs, we calculated two indices, expression width and organ specificity.
The Hymnotron, an electronic chord organ, featured calligraphic illuminations ("Depth," "Width," "Tempo") made by Dorothy Dewan, Leon's mother.
The width of the organ varies; it is generally about 6 cm wide at the fundus and only half this distance at the isthmus.
Width of sensory organ uniform along oral rim (0) or wider at certain areas (1).
Thus, entire organs larger than the detector width, and, as such, the brain, can be imaged at a temporal sampling of 1.5 s and time-resolved perfusion characteristics can be evaluated and quantified.
For comparison with the measurements in Rieger [ 8], distances from the rostral tip to specific organ systems as well as body width and length were calculated in units (U), the entire body length being 100U.
Deuterostome affinities would imply a coelomic cavity that included the gut and other internal organs, such as gonads, and the considerable width of the rod-like structure is consistent with this.
Rings of ∼3 mm width were mounted in 5 mL-organ baths filled with oxygenated Krebs–Henseleit solution (composition in mM: NaCl 118.4, NaHCO3 25, KCl 4.7, KH2PO4 1.2, CaCl2 2.5, MgCl2 1.2, d-glucose 10.1; pH 7.4).
