The digitized fate maps of the chick wing represent a new resource which can be used in future studies in relation to gene expression patterns.
The recruitment to the eyespot of these developmental genes that are normally required in insects to make the legs and the wings represents a butterfly innovation in the evolution of this novel trait.
Wings represent a large contribution to an aircraft's empty weight and there are many commonly used conceptual design tools which can accurately estimate this component's weight for conventional designs.
When Sir Herbert Baker designed the building early this century, it was intended to be a symbol of unity, marking the coming together of the British colonies and the defeated Boer republics - its two wings representing an equal marriage between English and Afrikaans.
Bird wings represent an extreme modification of the tetrapod forelimb to meet the functional demands of flight.
The patterning of the adult fly wing blade represents a simple but efficient in vivo system for studying Notch signaling (Blair 2007).
IMG Models, the company's high-fashion wing, represents such beauties as Tyra Banks, Giselle and Heidi Klum.
The upper left wing of the model represents the scientific software engineering principles, and the lower left wing represents the HCI.
The upper right wing represents the implementation of the specific methodology (focused on lowering the risk of development ripples) and the lower right wing represents the target scientific application producing the required results.
According to NASA's Web site, "the sphere represents a planet, the stars represent space, the red chevron is a wing representing aeronautics (the latest design in hypersonic wings at the time the logo was developed), and then there is an orbiting spacecraft going around the wing".
