mammilla การใช้
- Each mammilla forms from crystals radiating outward from an organic core until they touch neighboring mammillae and grow upwards into the next layer.
- The specific epithet " mammillaris " comes from the Latin " mammilla ", meaning " nipple ", with reference to the characteristic tubercles.
- The first species was described by Carl Linnaeus as " Cactus mammillaris " in 1753, deriving its name from Latin " mammilla ", " nipple ", referring to the tubercles that are among the distinctive features of the genus.
- In spherulitic eggs, the eggs of non-theropod dinosaurs, the eggshell units grow upward from their organic cores; the base of each eggshell unit is rounded, but is not a true mammilla because it does not have a distinct ultrastructure from the top of the unit.
