Subject field(s)
  • Anthropology

CONT

The inuksuk is a form of inusugait, the term used for all forms of piled stones. Inuksuit(plural of inuksuk) mark where a significant event happened and also help in the hunt of caribou herds. Other kinds of inusugait show travelers and hunters the way home, warn of dangerous places, and indicate where food is stored.

CONT

Inusugait – often seen as piles of rock slabs and stones – were usually built to resemble the shape of a person with arms stretching out. Depending on its use, each inusugait had its own descriptive name.

OBS

Inuksuks and inunnguaqs are types of inusugait.

OBS

inusugait: Inuktitut designation.

English

Subject field(s)
  • Veterinary Drugs
DEF

An antibiotic obtained from Streptomyces lasaliensis that is used as a coccidiostat, especially in poultry.

CONT

The drug lasalocid is permitted in poultry raised for meat. The Soil Association claims that tests on eggs by the UK government's veterinary medicines directorate show residues were found in 12 per cent of egg samples last year, up from 1 per cent in 1999. This means that consumers may be eating up to three million eggs a day containing residues.... Lasalocid is regarded by the UK government as a food additive rather than a growth-promoting antibiotic, over which there are controls. This means that no "safe" limits have been prescribed on residues of lasalocid.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Médicaments vétérinaires
CONT

L'analyse des tests de dépistage des anticoccidiens ionophores dans les œufs détecte également le lasalocide. Les échantillons alloués antérieurement au lasalocide ont été répartis entre la nicarbazine et les ionophores.

Subject field(s)
  • Non-Surgical Treatment
CONT

In severe cases of food allergy reactions, more than one dose of epinephrine may be needed. In fact, studies show that this is the case approximately 25% of the time. Therefore, at least two doses of epinephrine(ideally) should be available at school. Some experts have proposed that schools purchase "unassigned" epinephrine for the purpose of treating severe food allergy reactions that require multiple doses of epinephrine, as well as for children who may not have their own epinephrine and for those that may not already have a known diagnosis of food allergy.

Subject field(s)
  • Plant Biology

DEF

A plant that supplies shelter or food or both to ants, that lives symbiotically with ants or that is fertilized by them.

CONT

The obligate myrmecophytes provide food for the ants(in the form of nutrient rich food bodies) and the ants protect the plants against herbivore damage and climbers. Our recent studies show that this myrmecophytic system is much more complex concerning life types and species diversity than formerly supposed.

OBS

myrmecophyte: According to the Webster’s and the Oxford English Dictionaries, this term can only be used as a noun; the corresponding adjectival form is "myrmecophytic".

Key term(s)

Domaine(s)

DEF

Plante qui héberge habituellement des fourmis et qui vit en symbiose avec ces dernières.

CONT

Les plantes myrmécophiles sont des arbres des régions tropicales qui abritent des fourmis dans des cavités et des renflements de la tige et des feuilles, en communication avec l'extérieur par de petits orifices. Ce serait une véritable association à bénéfices réciproques : la plante héberge et nourrit les fourmis, et celles-ci la défendent contre ses ennemis.

The Ecotourism Society has guidelines to help find a truly eco-friendly operator. For example, a company should be able to show that funds from a trip go directly to the local community--this includes employing locals and using lodging and food from the area. The society also recommends asking tour operators about what they do for local conservation. Find out if they donate money to local organizations that concentrate on environmental concerns, or if the operators have established local conservation projects.

CONT

EcuadorExplorer.com believes that travelers should look for the following five characteristics when visiting eco-sites or while touring with eco-operators: 1. Conservation. 2. Minimal Environmental Impact. 3. Sustainability. 4. Meaningful Community Involvement. 5. Environmental Education.
