Product Description
CHAPTER I. BRANCH I.-PROTOZOA (Animalcules, Infusoria, Monads, etc. ). GENERAL CHARACTERS OF PROTOZOANS.-Few of the Protozoans can be seen without the aid of the microscope; they are microscopic animals or animalcules. One of the simplest forms is a very minute being called Amroba. It is to be sought for in standing pools, where it lives on the leaves or stems of ~ubmerged plants or in the mud or ooze at the bottom. Taking up a drop of w~ter from the bottom of such a pond and placing it under high l)owers of the microscope, we may, after close examination, detect a very small moving mass of jelly-like substance or protoplasm. As it glides over the glass the sides of its body bulge out, or it suddenly throws out lobes or projections from various parts of its body as if it were falling apaJ t; then it retracts these transparent ruot-like processes, which are called pseudopodia, or false feet, and becomes smooth and rounded, like a drop of thick syrup.

Product Description
Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people. They do so from a linguistic point of view, and in the case of this book, the focus is on "Zoology," including when used in literature (e.g. all authors that might have Zoology in their name). As such, this book represents the largest compilation of timeline events associated with Zoology when it is used in proper noun form. Webster's timelines cover bibliographic citations, patented inventions, as well as non-conventional and alternative meanings which capture ambiguities in usage. These furthermore cover all parts of speech (possessive, institutional usage, geographic usage) and contexts, including pop culture, the arts, social sciences (linguistics, history, geography, economics, sociology, political science), business, computer science, literature, law, medicine, psychology, mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology and other physical sciences. This "data dump" results in a comprehensive set of entries for a bibliographic and/or event-based timeline on the proper name Zoology, since editorial decisions to include or exclude events is purely a linguistic process. The resulting entries are used under license or with permission, used under "fair use" conditions, used in agreement with the original authors, or are in the public domain. ... Read more
