Permeative bone destruction. The permeative pattern indicates an aggressive bone lesion with rapid growth potential. The lesion is poorly demarcated and not easily separated from the surrounding normal bone. In fact, it may merge imperceptibly with uninvolved osseous segments, creating a zone of transition that is very long. Its true size is larger than that evident on the radiographs.

Geographic bone destruction. The geographic pattern is the least aggressive pattern of bone destruction, as it is generally indicative of a slow-growing lesion. The margin of the lesion is well defined and easily separated from the surrounding normal bone. This margin may be smooth or irregular, but in either instance, it is usually clearly demarcated, with a short zone of transition from normal to abnormal bone. Benign bone tumors usually demonstrate geographic bone destruction. Malignant diseases(such as plasma cell myeloma and metastasis) and osteomyelitis(particularly granulomatous infections) can demonstrate a similar pattern of bone destruction, however. 1, record 20, English, - geographic%20bone%20destruction

Record number: 25, Textual support number: 1 CONT
A warm front occurs when a warm air mass moves into an area occupied by a colder air mass. The warm air is lighter; so it flows up the slope of the cold air below it. Warm fronts usually form on the eastern sides of low pressure systems, create wide areas of clouds and rain, and move at an average speed of 15 mph. 3, record 25, English, - warm%20front

When these species hybridize in this transition area, forestry programs face special problems in identifying seedlots that have the desired genetic makeup of source material collected from traditional seed zones.

The balloon cell melanoma is deceptively benign-appearing, consisting of a mass of clear foam cells with little atypia and rare mitotic figures. The presence of a transition zone of spindle or epitheloid tumor cells can clarify the diagnosis. In the absence of a transition zone, balloon cell melanoma may be difficult to distinguish from a balloon cell nevus, xanthoma, granular cell tumor, hypernephroma, or liposarcoma. 2, record 37, English, - balloon%20cell%20melanoma

The multiple tropopause is most common above regions of large horizontal temperature contrast in the troposphere.

Motheaten bone destruction. The motheaten pattern is a more aggressive pattern of bone destruction, characteristic of a lesion that is more rapidly growing than one that demonstrates geographic bone destruction. The motheaten pattern of bone destruction is associated with a less well defined or demarcated lesional margin and with a longer zone of transition from normal to abnormal bone. Malignant bone tumors and osteomyelitis may demonstrate the motheaten pattern of bone destruction. [From REBON, 1988, p. 3604. ] 3, record 39, English, - motheaten%20bone%20destruction

The term crown as generally used in horticulture designates that part of a plant at the surface of the ground from which new shoots are produced. In trees or shrubs with a single trunk, the crown is principally a point of location near the ground surface marking the general transition zone between stem and root. In herbaceous perennials, the crown is the part of the plant from which new shoots arise annually. The crown of herbaceous perennials consists of many branches, each being the base of the current season's stem, which originated from the base of the preceding year's branch. 3, record 40, English, - crown%20leaf
