MOCHLIQUE. 1.

1. Disposition des os: Aux doigts les os et les articulations sont simples; la main et le pied en contiennent beaucoup, articulés les uns d'une façon, les autres d'une autre, les plus gros sont les plus rapprochés du tronc; le talon est constitué par un seul os, que l'on voit saillant en arrière, et qui donne attache aux tendons postérieurs. La jambe est composée de deux os, unis en haut et en bas, séparés un peu dans le milieu; l'os externe (''péroné''), est de peu plus petit que l'autre du côté du petit orteil, mais il l'est de beaucoup là où les deux os sont séparés, et du coté du genou. De cet os naît le tendon qui est en dehors du jarret; les deux os ont en bas une épiphyse commune dans laquelle le pied se meut, et en haut une autre épiphyse où se meut l'extrémité articulaire du fémur. Celle ci est simple et légère proportionnement à la longueur de l'os; elle est en forme de condyle et pourvue d'une rotule; le corps même de l'os est bombé en dehors et en avant; la tète en est une épiphyse ronde, de laquelle provient le ligament fixé dans la cavité cotyloïde. Le fémur aussi est articulé un peu obliquement, mais moins que l'humérus. L'ischion tient à la grande vertèbre, celle qui est contiguë à l'os sacré, par un ligament névro-cartilagineux (''ligament ilio-lombaire''). Le rachis, depuis [l'extrémité du] sacrum jusqu'à la grande vertèbre, est saillant en arrière; dans la concavité sont la vessie, les organes de la génération et la partie inclinée du rectum; de là jusqu'au diaphragme, il est dirigé en ligne droite et saillant en avant, les psoas sont là; de là jusqu'à la grande vertèbre, au-dessus des épaules, il est en ligne droite et saillant en arrière, mais il l'est encore plus en apparence qu'en réalité, car les apophyses postérieures des vertèbres sont, là, le plus élevées: au cou, le racbis est saillant en avant. Les vertèbres forment en avant un assemblage régulier; elles sont réunies par un ligament (''fibro-cartilage'') qui naît de la couche cartilagineuse extérieure; l'articulation synarthrodiale en est placée derrière la moelle épinière. En arrière, elles ont une apophyse aiguë, qui, à son tour, a une apophyse cartilagineuse; de là partent des ligaments qui se dirigent en bas, de même que les muscles qui s'étendent depuis le cou jusqu'aux lombes, et qui remplissent l'intervalle entre les côtes et l'épine. Les côtes sont jointes, en arrière aux entre-deux des vertèbres; par un petit ligament depuis le cou jusqu'aux lombes, en avant au sternum; l'extrémité en est molle, et non compacte; la forme n'en est aussi arquée chez aucun animal: l'homme, pour son volume, est celui qui a la poitrine la plus étroite d'avant en arrière; dans l'endroit où elles ont une tubérosilé oblique, courte et large, elles s'articulent avec chaque vertèbre par un petit ligament. Le sternum est continu avec lui-même, offrant des interstices latéraux qui reçoivent les côtes: il est spongieux et cartilagineux. Les clavicules sont arrondies en avant; elles ont des mouvements, très-courts au sternum, plus amples à l'acromion. L'acromion naît de l'omoplate, disposition différente de ce qui est chez la plupart des animaux. L'omoplate est cartilagineuse du côté du rat lus, spongieuse dans le reste, tournée en dehors par sa partie inégale, pourvue d'un col et d'une cavité cartilagineuse; elle n'empêche pas les côtes de se mouvoir, car elle se détache facilement des os, excepté de l'humérus. La tête de celui-ci est attachée à la cavité de l'omoplate par un ligament mince, et elle est revêtue d'une couche arrondie de cartilage non compacte; le corps même de l'os est bombé en dehors et en avant, oblique et non peipendiculaire à la cavité; l'extrémité cubitale en est large, avec des condyles et des enfoncements ; elle est solide et présente en arrière un creux où l'apophyse courbe du cubitus (''olecrane'') se loge quand le bras est dans l'extension; là aussi arrive le nerf engourdissant, qui naît du milieu de l'interstice des os de l'avant bras, et se tei mine.

MOCHLICUS. 1.

With regard to the construction of bones, the bones and joints of the fingers are simple, the bones of the hand and foot are numerous, and articulated in various ways ; the uppermost are the largest ; the heel consists of one bone which is seen to project outwards, and the back tendons are attached to it. The leg consists of two bones, united together above and below, but slightly separated in the middle; the external bone (fibula), where it comes into proximity with the little toe, is but slightly smaller than the other, more so where they are separated, and at the knee, the outer hamstring arises from it (The tendon of the biceps); these bones have a common epiphysis below, with which the foot is moved, and another epiphysis above, in which is moved the articular extremity of the femur, which is simple and light in proportion to its length, in the form of a condyle, and having the patella (connected with it ?), the femur itself bends outwards and forwards; its head is a round epiphysis which gives origin to the ligament inserted in the acetabulum of the hip-joint [translator's note: Allusion is evidently made to the ligamentum teres]. This bone is articulated somewhat obliquely, but less so than the humerus. The ischium is united to the great vertebra contiguous to the os sacrum by a cartilaginous ligament. The spine, from the os sacrum to the great vertebra, is curved backwards; in this quarter are situated the bladder, the organs of generation, and the inclined portion of the rectum; from this to the diaphragm it proceeds in a straight line inclining forwards, and the psoae are situated there; from this pointy to the great vertebra above the tops of the shoulders, it rises in a line that is curved backwards, and the curvature appears greater than it is in reality, for the posterior processes of the spine are there highest; the articulation of the neck inclines forwards. The vertebrae on the inside are regularly placed upon one another, but behind they are connected by a cartilaginous ligament; they are articulated in the form of synarthrosis at the back part of the spinal marrow; behind they have a sharp process having a cartilaginous epiphysis, whence proceeds the roots of nerves running downwards, as also muscles extending from the neck to the loins, and filling the space between the ribs and the spine. The ribs are connected to all the intervertebral spaces on the inside, from the neck to the lumbar region, by a small ligament, and before to the sternum, their extremities being spongy and soft; their form is the most arched in man of all animals; for in this part, man is, of all animals, the narrowest in proportion to his bulk. The ribs are united to each vertebra by a small ligament at the place from which the short and broad lateral processes (transverse processes?) arise. The sternum is one continuous bone, having lateral pits for the insertion of the ribs; it is of a spongy and cartilaginous structure. The clavicles are rounded in front, having some slight movements at the sternum, but more free at the acromion. The acromion, in man, arises from the scapula differently from most other animals. The scapula is cartilaginous towards the spine, and spongy elsewhere, having an irregular figure externally; its neck and articular cavity cartilaginous; it does not interfere with the movements of the ribs, and is free of all connexion with the other bones, except the humerus. The head of the humerus is articulated with its (glenoid?) cavity, by means of a small ligament, and it consists of a rounded epiphysis composed of spongy cartilage, the humerus itself is bent outwards and forwards, and it is articulated with its (glenoid?) cavity by its side, and not in a straight line. At the elbow it is broad, and has condyles and cavities, and is of a solid consistence; behind it is a cavity in which the coronoid process (olecranon?) of the ulna is lodged when the arm is extended; here, too, is inserted the benumbing nerve, which arises from between the two bones of the fore-arm at their junction, and terminates there.

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).
