Another Yomud stripe with vine in which serrations take the place of latch-hooks is shown in Plate L, Fig.
It is a pattern that scarcely varies with time or locality except in the number of serrations to the leaf and in the shape of the cup.
Its border exhibits serrations which stop a little short of the stalk, while the venations extend from the central rib, nearly parallel to one another, but turn just before reaching the border of the leaf (see Fig.
The genuine tea-leaf is characterized by its peculiar serrations and venations.
Bill with distinct serrations near its end, sometimes only the upper mandible serrated; subterminal notch obsolete.
Bill without serrations in either mandible; upper mandible with a distinct notch just before the end.
The serrations of the cutting edges are not visible to the naked eye and are limited on the anterior edges of the teeth to those portions of the blades that are recurved.
The posterior serrations extend nearly to the junction of the blade of each tooth with its base.
Zacualtipan, Hidalgo, are like those described by Rabb and Mosimann in having 2/3 tooth rows, peglike serrations on the beaks, and long rounded tails.
Again, the stridulating noise produced by the legs of the grasshopper is due to serrations occurring on different joints of the limb.
Serrations on one joint would in no way tend to develop them on the other, but rather the contrary, yet there they are, in harmonious co-operation.
These serrations are best studied at the middle of the sides of the leaves, those at the base and apex often being crowded or wanting.
All stipules are deeply toothed and bear glands of varying color and shape on the serrations, the characters of both serrations and glands offering some distinguishing marks for species and varieties.
The Marasca cherries differ from the other cultivated forms chiefly in the greater vigor of the trees, relatively finer serrations of the leaves, longer stipules and a more compact inflorescence.
They are homologous with those on the serrations of the blades of the same leaves, as shown by their structure and by transition-forms; for the lowest serrations on the blades of most of the leaves secrete nectar instead of resin (harz).
There is a long barbed spine with two rows of serrations at the nape.
The dorsal fin has a large spine with retrorse serrations behind.
Before it is the prominent ridge of the preopercle (24), which curves forward below and forms a more or less distinct angle, often armed with serrations or spines.
Both serrations and glands are best studied in the middle of the sides of leaves, those at the base or apex often being crowded or wanting.
The serrations of the glandless leaves are very strikingly different from those on a leaf with glands.
Almost invariably, when glands develop on a normally glandless leaf, the serrations are transformed to crenations, indicating that there is a very close correlation between the glands and the crenations on the edges of the leaves.
Homicidal Cut Throat from Right to Left, showing a Tentative Cut at the Commencement and the Serrations at the Termination of the Wound.
Suicidal Cut Throat from Left to Right, showing the Tentative Cuts at the Commencement and the Serrations at the Termination of the Wound.
The short pieces and dust, or flocks as it is called, are drawn in as the serrations open and the cloth is shrunken.
After the weaving the cloth is put into vats where the temperature opens up the serrations and the scales interlock, and make a close, smooth piece of cloth.
Do you think we wish the tiny serrations to interlock when we wash woolen articles?
The tiny serrations on the wool fiber cannot be seen with the naked eye.
It is, instead, carded a great deal so that the wool fibers are well mixed and the serrations of the tiny fibers arranged so that they will interlock, when put in water of high temperature, and the gelatinous scales are opened up.
There are tiny serrations on the wool surface which look like the scales of a pine cone, lapping one over the other.
This is a wonderful thing to see; for it is on account of these tiny serrations which close up when in hot water that one must be so careful about laundering woolens.
These engage with similar serrations in the bolt stud and make it impossible to raise the tumbler if the bolt begins to move too soon when a wrong key is inserted.
It will be noticed that the forward notch of the tumbler has square serrationsin the edges.
Fine serrations were formed by the removal of small flakes, opposite each other, from each face.
Serrations on the blade edges are finely executed as opposed to deeper serrations on the Kirk Serrated projectile point.
On the serrated examples the serrations are broader and deeper near the shoulders, and the points are usually serrated no more than half the length of the blade.
This was followed by collateral, rarely random, flaking, usually resulting in regular serrationsalong the blade edges.
The serrations apparently were made at the time when the point was finished, since the flake scars produced by the serrations were long and overlapped toward the center of the blade.
Single, broader serrations may be formed by removal of more than one flake.
The lack of retouch along the blade edges leaves an irregular blade edge outline that somewhat resembles crude serrations on some examples.
These serrations may appear the full length of the blade near the basal end or near the distal end.
The serrations are the result of the removal of regular flakes from the edge of alternate faces.
The edges are shaped by fine, regular, secondary flaking, which often resulted in serrations and beveled blade edges.
By this means the thin edge becomes serrated, and the points of the teeth forming the serrations pass down the bottoms of the rows of file teeth and force out the pins.
This end may also be attained by making the serrations round at the bottom, as shown in the figure.
The serrations are left-handed, so that the tendency is to force the drill forward and toward the cut, supposing them to act as a nut and screw upon the drill shank.
In moving K to the right the sleeve L is also moved to the right, and its serrations at L' being engaged with the tongue P, the sleeve M is pulled forward.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "serrations" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word.
