Definition: A shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer's being such that every part of the surface or the circumference is equidistant from the center.
Definition: A state of the cingulum wherein the end of the cingulum is lower than the beginning. Facing the ventral side of the cell, the cingulum on your right-hand side is higher than the cingulum on your left-hand side.
Definition: An aquatic biome that comprises systems of open-ocean and unprotected coastal habitats, characterized by exposure to wave action, tidal fluctuation, and ocean currents as well as systems that largely resemble these. Water in the marine biome is generally within the salinity range of seawater: 30 to 38 ppt.
Definition: A convex 3-D shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer's resembling a cone (a 3-D shape with a round cross section that tapers).
Definition: Egg-shaped; a spheroid quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer's exhibiting a continuous convex surface with an axis of symmetry and one axis longer than the other.
Definition: A shape quality inhering in a bearer by virtue of the bearer's having depth quality which is relatively high and a width which is relatively small
