appendage in dogs

Major subdivision of an organism that protrudes from the body[DOS, CARO]. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the appendage is

Major subdivision of an organism that protrudes from the body[DOS, CARO]. The atlas records it as a region at the region scale in the dog.

Where the appendage is

This dataset records no region or system for it. No positional evidence of any kind. Drawn outside the body so it can still be found and counted, never inside it.

What the appendage connects to

The atlas records 122 typed relationships for it, across 4 kinds of connection. a kind of organism subdivision.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the appendage. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.

Also called

Also recorded as appendages, extremitaet, extremity and limbs/digits/tail. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Is the appendage the same in other species?

This page describes the dog. The human record of the same structure sits beside it on /compare, over one shared model rather than two atlases built separately.
