Examples

“If, in fact, in L. funebris there is no sex marker on the song elements themselves, then a young bird must be able to sex its tutor. The same is true if the individuals were predisposed to produce⟳ the total vocabulary of any population, or of both sexes in their own⟳ population, and then under experience⟳ had to suppress a sex-specific subset of that repertoire. It seems unrealistic to assume⟳ the reverse, that a parent bird can sex by some hidden cues newly hatched sexually monomorphic offspring and direct⟳ its own⟳ vocabulary to consexual young only.”
“Common immunohistochemical markers of this lymphoma include⟳ CD2, CD56, CD3, and T-cell receptors. 7 Typically, the histology of these lymphomas are characterized by monomorphic inflammatory cellular infiltrates, which may be diffuse or show⟳ angiocentricity and angiodestruction as well as tissue destruction. 7 Lymphoid markers from the nasal mucosal biopsy from this patient were negative for CD56 and EBER.”
