panniculus carnosus การใช้

• In other animals, the panniculus carnosus is more extensive.
• The panniculus carnosus is a layer of striated muscle deep to the panniculus adiposus.
• Although absent in hominoids the panniculus carnosus is common in non-hominoid primates and non-primate mammals.
• A grazing animal may twitch the panniculus carnosus to frustrate the attempts of a bird to perch on its back.
• Possible homologous structures in other species have been identified as the dorsoepitrochlearis muscle, the pectoralis quartus muscle or the panniculus carnosus.
• In lower mammals the area of the panniculus carnosus can be extensive, almost covering the entire body in the case of the short-beaked echidna.
• Several human muscles are considered discrete muscles originally part of the panniculus carnosus and some researchers classify the axillary arch as a sporadic vestigial muscle of this type.
• This tissue may be further divided into two components, the actual fatty layer, or panniculus adiposus, and a deeper vestigial layer of muscle, the panniculus carnosus.
• For another example, the panniculus carnosus in the echidna covers almost its entire body, enabling it to change its shape to a certain degree, most characteristically by rolling into a ball and presenting its spines to a potential predator.
