Between the origin of the coracoid artery from the subclavian, and the point where the coracoid artery passes the medial edge of the coracoid, several branches are given off.

The origin is from the dorsal two-thirds of the keel and medial half of the sternum (where the origin is bordered ventrally, posteriorly, and laterally by the origin of M.
Additionally, there seems to be no reason to assume that the lateral position of the thoracic artery is the primitive one, or that the medial is the derived position, as is implied by the phrase "medial migration.
The medial migration of the thoracic artery appears to have some phylogenetic significance as yet not understood.
The origin is from the manubrium and from approximately the posterior half of the coracoid and on the medial and dorsal surface of that bone, and the medial side of the sterno-coraco-clavicular membrane adjacent to the coracoid.

One of the tributaries to the Cowlitz glacier from this spur brings down with it a second medial moraine, which is traceable to the mouth of the glacier, though in general these tributary glaciers bring no medial moraines.
Farther down the glacier, where surface melting was more advanced, the entire glacier, with the exception of a few lanes of clear ice between the ill-defined medial moraines, was completely concealed beneath a desolate sheet of angular stones.
At the point of confluence of the two branches there begins a longmedial moraine that stretches like a black tape the whole length of the lower course.
This ice stream supplies probably one-third of the total bulk of the Kautz Glacier, as one may infer from the position of the medial moraine that develops at the point of confluence.
In the last mile of the Nisqually's course, this medial moraine develops from a mere dirt band to a conspicuous embankment, projecting 40 feet above the ice.

A short distance above the glacier's terminus the medial moraine and the ever-broadening marginal bands come together.
This medial moraine proceeds from the cliff which bounds the ice cascade source of the glacier on the north, and brings down a dark porous lava which is only found high up on the mountain near the crater.
From each of these dark rock islands trails a long medial moraine that extends in an ever-broadening band down to the foot of the glacier.
The position of the medial moraine on the glacier would indicate that at least half its mass came from the spur on the east, which is probably the case.

Friar Juan de Padilla was the leader of the three missionaries.
The general faithfully exhorted them to become Christians and to submit themselves to the sovereign over-lordship of His Majesty the Spanish [p390] King.
He ordered him to go from there with half the force to explore toward the west; and he did so, and traveled 150 leagues, to the river which Hernando de Alarcon entered from the sea, which he called the Buenaguia.
The security of the province was essential to the successful prosecution of the plans of the new alliance.
Angular, surangular and articular bones extend backward beneath and medial to the process.
The medial division or temporal arose from the sagittal crest and supraoccipital crest and the intervening dermal roof.
In Didelphis the sagittal crest is high and dorsally convex in lateral aspect, arising posterior to and medial to the orbits, reaching its greatest height near the midpoint, and sloping down to its termination at the supraoccipital crest.
Presumably the muscle was sheetlike and attached to the skull roof, medial to the attachment of the masseter.

On the medial surface of the mandible, the prearticular and articular bones meet in a ridge that ventrally rims the glenoid cavity (Fig.
In Captorhinus the lateral wing of the pterygoid cuts across the fossa, effectively blocking it from the upper and medial parts of the skull, the areas of origin for the pseudotemporal.

The evidence indicates that the lateral and medial temporal masses were present in both genera.
The anterior pterygoid extended obliquely backward and downward from its origin, passedmedial to the temporal muscle and inserted on the ventral and medial surfaces of the splenial and angular bones beneath the Meckelian fossa.
The muscle was probably divided into a major medial mass, the temporal, and a lesser, sheetlike lateral mass, the masseter.
As a medial man I could have no opinion on such a point unless I knew Mr. Tyke, and even then I should require to know the cases in which he was applied.
Seen from a distance medial moraines look smaller than they are.
Where two glaciers flow together and unite, the right lateral moraine of the one and the left of the other will join and be carried down as a medial moraine on the surface of the united glacier.
Such medial moraines may be observed in considerable numbers flowing down, side by side, on glaciers formed by the union of a number of higher tributaries.
It is well to make the acquaintance of the medial moraines and to scramble over them, first for the wider view that one gets from the top, and next in order to realise their dimensions, always larger than one expects.
The absence of case-terminations in such compounds cannot therefore be used as proof of the non-existence of case-terminations at a time when the medial and other personal endings took their origin.

The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "medial" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
