Internal anatomy of a female - 1 o-slit shaped orifice of poison gland. Behind the mouth opening is a mandible with a 5 segmented palpus. a-anus. s-are the two column-shaped spiracles leading into the lungs or tracheae. s'-is an unpaired spiracle that leads into tubular tracheae. The abdomen has the intestine and ovary embedded in the liver.
Mohs surgery is the gold standard method for obtaining complete margin control during removal of a skin cancer (complete circumferential peripheral and deep margin assessment - CCPDMA) using frozen section histology. [1] CCPDMA or Mohs surgery allows for the removal of a skin cancer with very narrow surgical margin and a high cure rate.
In some cases the spider vibrates the web of other spiders, mimicking the struggle of trapped prey to lure the host closer. Pholcids prey on Tegenaria funnel weaver spiders, and are known to attack and eat redback spiders, huntsman spiders and house spiders.

In most species the spiracles can be opened and closed in an efficient manner to admit air while reducing water loss. In various species, this is done by a wide range of mechanisms, such as elastic closure, and closer muscles surrounding the spiracle or kinking the tube. In some the muscle relaxes to open the spiracle, in others to close it.
Some chelicerae, such as those found on nearly all spiders, are hollow and contain (or are connected to) venom glands, used to inject venom into prey or a perceived threat. Both pseudoscorpions and harvestmen have additional structures on their chelicerae that are used for grooming (papillae in pseudoscorpions, cheliceral teeth in Opiliones). [ 1 ]
The most effective and commonly used treatment of BCC is Mohs surgery, which involves removing thin layers of skin to be examined for signs of cancer. The process continues, layer by layer, until ...
Pholcus phalangioides, commonly known as the cosmopolitan cellar spider, long-bodied cellar spider, or one of various types called a daddy long-legs spider, is a spider of the family Pholcidae. This is the only spider species described by the Swiss entomologist Johann Kaspar Füssli , who first recorded it in 1775. [ 1 ]
The trachea were originally connected to the surroundings through a pair of openings called spiracles, but in the majority of spiders this pair of spiracles has fused into a single one in the middle, and moved backwards close to the spinnerets. [13] Spiders that have tracheae generally have higher metabolic rates and better water conservation. [17]
