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.
Marie François Xavier Bichat (/ b iː ˈ ʃ ɑː /; [3] French:; 14 November 1771 – 22 July 1802) [4] was a French anatomist and pathologist, known as the father of modern histology. [ 5 ] [ a ] Although he worked without a microscope , Bichat distinguished 21 types of elementary tissues from which the organs of the human body are composed ...
It then becomes a distinct invagination that lengthens towards the lateral sulcus and towards the longitudinal fissure [4] at approximately 22 to 23 weeks of gestational age. [ 5 ] Between 2 and 3 years of age, the landmark ‘Pli de Passage Frontoparietal Moyen’ (PPFM), which is a depression buried at the central part of the central sulcus ...
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.
Transverse fissure can refer to: Porta hepatis or transverse fissure of liver; Horizontal fissure of right lung (or 'horizontal fissure') Horizontal fissure of cerebellum
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.
A commissure (/ ˈ k ɒ m ə ʃ ər /) is the location at which two objects abut or are joined. The term is used especially in the fields of anatomy and biology. The most common usage of the term refers to the brain's commissures, of which there are at least nine. Such a commissure is a bundle of commissural fibers as a tract that crosses the midline at i
