2 results about "Forelimb" patented technology

A forelimb is an anterior limb (arm, leg, or similar appendage) on a terrestrial vertebrate's body. All vertebrate forelimbs are homologous, meaning that they all evolved from the same structures. For example, the flipper of a turtle or of a dolphin, the arm of a human, the foreleg of a horse, and the wings of both bats and birds are ultimately analogous, despite the large differences between them.
