Demonstration of siphoning tropical fruit punch with a flying-droplet siphon. The siphon in the video demonstration operated steadily for more than 28 minutes until the upper reservoir was empty. Another simple demonstration that liquid tensile strength is not needed in the siphon is to simply introduce a bubble into the siphon during operation.
This process establishes a self-sustaining flow of the chain which rises over the edge and goes down to the floor or ground beneath it, as if being sucked out of the jar by an invisible siphon. For chains with small adjacent beads , the arc can ascend into the air over and above the edge of the jar with a noticeable gap; this gap is greater ...
A colony of Perophora multiclathrata consists of slender, branching stolons, with unstalked zooids growing at intervals. Each zooid is 2 to 3 mm (0.08 to 0.12 in) long and has about twenty tentacles surrounding the buccal siphon, alternately long and short.
The siphon is part of the mantle of the mollusc, and the water flow is directed to (or from) the mantle cavity. A single siphon occurs in some gastropods. In those bivalves which have siphons, the siphons are paired. In cephalopods, there is a single siphon or funnel which is known as a hyponome.

These are the buccal siphon through which water flows into the body of the animal and the atrial siphon through which it is expelled. A large pharynx occupies much of the interior and the surrounding muscular body wall is known as the mantle. The pharynx opens into a horizontally aligned gut which loops around to terminate near the atrial siphon.
