The buccal fat pad (also called Bichat’s fat pad, after Xavier Bichat, and the buccal pad of fat) is one of several encapsulated fat masses in the cheek. It is a deep fat pad located on either side of the face between the buccinator muscle and several more superficial muscles (including the masseter, the zygomaticus major, and the zygomaticus minor).

Clevenger's fissure: found in the inferior temporal lobe of the brain; Collateral fissure: found in the inferior surface of the cerebrum. Fissure of Bichat: found below the corpus callosum in the cerebellum of the brain. Lateral sulcus or Fissure of Sylvius: separates the frontal and parietal lobes of the brain from the temporal lobe.

Transverse: Here cytokinesis takes place along the transverse axis. e.g. in ciliate protozoans like Paramecium. Oblique: In this type of binary fission, cytokinesis occurs obliquely. Example Ceratium. Binary fission means "division into two". It is the simplest and most common method of asexual reproduction.
The porta hepatis or transverse fissure of the liver is a short but deep fissure, about 5 cm long, extending transversely beneath the left portion of the right lobe of the liver, nearer its posterior surface than its anterior border.
It looks backward, being nearly vertical in position; it is longer from above downward than from side to side, and is somewhat concave in the transverse direction. It is situated behind the porta, and separates the fossa for the gall-bladder from the commencement of the fossa for the inferior vena cava. See Adriaan van den Spiegel 1578-1625 ...
The commissural fibers or transverse fibers are axons that connect the two hemispheres of the brain. Huge numbers of commissural fibers make up the commissural tracts in the brain, the largest of which is the corpus callosum .
