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 ).

  Unknown Master, tapestry from Hamburg – Jacob wrestling with the angel (1632).  Depicting the circumstances and mechanism of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) injury based on the description in the Book of Genesis: 25 And Ja cob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day. 26 And when he saw that he could not prevail against him, he struck against the hollow of his thigh ; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was put out of joint, as he was wrestling with him. … 33 Therefore do the children of Israel not eat the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day; because he struck against the hollow of Jacob's thigh on the sinew that shrank.  ( 1922LeeserI , Genesis (Bereshit) 32:25-26,33) More about the plot in our work:  Ninth month, eleventh day   ( 2024 АрхиповСВ.

1853JamainA

  Fragments from the book Jamain A. Nouveau traité élémentaire d'anatomie descriptive (1853). The author briefly describes the anatomy of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), noting its three points of proximal attachment. The text is prepared for machine translation using a service built into the blog from Google or your web browser.   Quote p. 14 4 Surfaces articulaires. Du côté du fémur, tête hémisphérique encroûtée de cartilage et présentant à sa partie supérieure et interne une dépression qui loge un ligament inter-articulaire. Du côté de l'os iliaque , cavité cotyloïde, profonde , échancrée sur sa circonférence, surtout à sa partie antérieure et inférieure, et présentant dans sa partie profonde une dépression remplie de tissu adipeux rougeâtre, improprement appelé glande cotyloïdienne. Cette cavité est encroûtée de cartilage, excepté dans la dépression dont nous venons de parler. Quote p. 145 2. Ligamentinter-articulaire (fig. 12, 2, 3), appelé encore ligament r...
