| The latter are characterized by sheet-like apophyses that interfinger with host rocks. |
| Adolescents are particularly vulnerable to avulsion injuries because of the inherent weakness of the apophyses. |
| The first eight or nine dorsal vertebral apophyses may be left on either the right or the left half-carcase. |
| These apophyses extend 50 pm into the adjacent quartz grains and, when viewed parallel to the grain boundaries, form irregular branching features. |
| Epiphyses and apophyses are secondary ossification centers and, therefore, are embryonic equivalents. |
| Ideal for treatment and prevention of painful heels, spurs and other apophyses. |
