interspine

Etymology

Definitions

1. 1

   Between spines.

   • The devices limit the range of motion of the spine that are trapped within it so that there is a reduction in the amount of interspine bending and interspine torsion for the regions in which the garments are applied.
   • For example, inhibitory synapses on the trunk dendrite would reduce interspine communication and could control saltatory conduction between spines (Shepherd and Brayton, 1987).
   • This effect is aimed at inducing large interspine intervals to accommodate a high number of voltage dependent Ca²⁺ channels.
2. 2

   A spine of connective tissue that connects the rays of a fish's fin.

   • It consists of 10 short rays, articulating with 10 long and slender interspines, the anterior one of the series being 1 8/10 inch in length.
   • The first interspine is roughly parallel to the outline of the brain and to it is attached the succeeding ray.
   • Interspines begin to differentiate, but hypurals and epurals do not.
3. 3

   The area between spines on a sunspot.

   • This convective signature is the same in spines and interspines.
   • It was proposed that the PJs form as a result of reconnection between two magnetic components of penumbra (spines and interspines), and that they could contribute to the transition region (TR) and coronal heating above sunspot penumbrae.

      The interior of the spinal cord.

      • Avoid unnecessary dissection, especially of the interspine and ligaments.
