Exempel på hur man kan använda BYSSAL i en mening

• The word "mussel" is frequently used to mean the bivalves of the marine family Mytilidae, most of which live on exposed shores in the intertidal zone, attached by means of their strong byssal threads ("beard") to a firm substrate.
• A small minority of scallop species live cemented to rocky substrates as adults, while others attach themselves to stationary or rooted objects such as seagrass at some point in their lives by means of a filament they secrete called a byssal thread.
• Their shells are D-shaped, and attached to the substrate with strong byssal fibers, which come out of their umbo on the dorsal (hinged) side.
• Types of substrate attachments include mussels' tethering byssal threads and glues, sea stars' thousands of suctioning tube feet, and isopods' hook-like appendages that help them hold on to intertidal kelps.
• paula facilitates entry into the narrow space inside snail shells where they attach to the columellae and siphonal canal via byssal threads.
• A significant morphological feature lacking in the entoliids but present in modern scallops is the ctenolium, a comb-like structure under the anterior auricle through which scallops are able to produce a byssal thread for attachment to a substrate.
• It is a benthic shallow water species and is typically found in soft-bottom silty habitats, with its narrow anterior end (umbo) burrowed down and attached to underground substrate by its byssal threads.
• Shells without a pallial sinus are termed integripalliate— such animals (as mentioned, the scallops as well as some other groups) often have a byssal notch present on the anterior end of the right valve (only), and the anterior auricles or "wings" of both valves will be either larger than, or equal to, the posterior ones.
• ochraceus can insert part of its everted stomach, or some digestive juices, through the narrow gap that exists where the byssal threads emerge from the shell.
• It is attracted to water that has been altered by this species of mussel, This snail also feeds on periphyton of methanotrophic bacteria that grow on the shells of Bathymodiolus childressi, living on the decomposing periostracum of the mussels and on byssal fibres of those mussels.
• The foot in Protobranchia clams is without a true byssus gland, although they frequently have a nonhomologous byssal gland in the heel.
