Exempel på hur du använder INCUS i en mening

• The mammalian middle ear contains three ossicles (malleus, incus, and stapes), which transfer the vibrations of the eardrum into waves in the fluid and membranes of the inner ear.
• Though the term may refer to any small bone throughout the body, it typically refers to the malleus, incus, and stapes (hammer, anvil, and stirrup) of the middle ear.
• The incus receives vibrations from the malleus, to which it is connected laterally, and transmits these to the stapes medially.
• A third is the repurposing of two of the three bones in the amniote jaw to become the malleus and incus of the mammalian ear, leaving the mammalian jaw with just one hinge.
• Conductive hearing ability is mediated by the middle ear composed of the ossicles: the malleus, the incus, and the stapes.
• Type 3 involves removal of ossicles and epitympanum when there are large defects of the malleus and incus.
• As an example, the anvil cloud (supplementary feature incus) forms at high altitude but is not classified by the WMO as a high cloud because of its association with the genus cumulonimbus.
• The compression and rarefaction of these waves set this thin membrane in motion, causing sympathetic vibration through the middle ear bones (the ossicles: malleus, incus, and stapes), the basilar fluid in the cochlea, and the hairs within it, called stereocilia.
• In humans, the cartilaginous bar of the mandibular arch is formed by what are known as Meckel's cartilages (right and left) also known as Meckelian cartilages; above this the incus and malleus are developed.
• Cumulonimbus calvus is a moderately tall cumulonimbus cloud that is capable of precipitation but has not yet reached the tropopause, which is the height of stratospheric stability at which cumulonimbus forms into cumulonimbus capillatus (fibrous-top) or cumulonimbus incus (anvil-top).
• They are not directly produced by cumulonimbus incus but rather produced by supercells which come from cumulonimbus incus.
• The vibration of the tympanic membrane drives the middle ear ossicles, the malleus, incus, and stapes to vibrate in sync with the eardrum.
• The incudomalleolar joint (more correctly called incudomallear joint) or articulatio incudomallearis is a small synovial joint between the malleus (hammer) and the incus (anvil).
• The incudostapedial joint lies between the long leg of the incus (long crus, or crus longum incudis) and the head of the stapes (caput stapedis).
• This arch originates maxillar and mandibular prominences, part of the temporal bone and Meckel's cartilage (malleus and incus) as skeletal structures.
• A TORP replaces the entire ossicular chain while a PORP replaces only the incus and malleus but not the stapes.
• These bones form the middle ear in later mammal groups (see Evolution of mammalian auditory ossicles); they include the incus (quadrate), malleus (articular), ectotympanic (angular) and prearticular.
• Niccolo Massa's Liber introductorius anatomiae described the malleus in slightly more detail and likened both it and the incus to little hammers terming them malleoli.
