subtend

A radian is the angle subtended by an arc of a circle whose length is just equal to the radius.

Inflorescence a terminal head of sessile, solitary or clustered flowers, subtended by an involucre of leaves.

Inflorescence a short dense head, subtended by an inflated leaf sheath with rudimentary blade.

demonstrating subluxation of the distal radioulnar joint. The ulna should lie between the subtended lines.

Inflorescence racemose or paniculate, terminal ones slender, glabrous, subtended by persistent, gradually enlarged bracts.

Inflorescences indeterminate, racemose, elongate, and stem like or condensed and umbellate, with each flower subtended by a single leaf.

flowering pedicel perpendicular to axis of raceme, glabrous, subtended by a setaceous bracteole.

The area bounded by a chord and the arc of a curve subtended by the chord .

Plants reddish or yellowish green; lower branches prostrate; bracts erect, upper ones shorter than subtended flower.

Flowers bisexual, arising from axils of small bracts, erect, small, often subtended by a bracteole.

Inflorescence a head subtended by 2 opposite, inequilateral bracts, flowering in a centrifugal sequence.

pedicel slender, pubescent, subtended by a subulate bract.

Male flowers: subsessile, zygomorphic, subtended by two slender rudimentary or indistinct bracts.

Male flowers: pedicellate or sessile, subtended by U-shaped or variously reduced bracts.

Flowers solitary, several in a loose cyme, or numerous and clustered into capitula, subtended by 1--4 pairs of appressed bracts.

branches arising singly from nodes and subtended by a leaf sheath and 2-keeled prophyll, often fascicled in bamboos.

Male flowers: clustered basally on inflorescence, ca. 3 mm in diam. , pedicellate, subtended by rudimentary bracts.

Flowers bisexual, arising from axils of bracts, small, often subtended by 1 cupular or rarely 3 nearly free bracteoles.

2 (1) Inflorescence a loose thyrse or panicle, base subtended by a tendril.

Inflorescences capitate cymes, 3-7-flowered, subtended by a whorl of 5 or 6 prominent involucral bracts.

Female flower subtended by large foliose, membranous bract to which pedicel is adnate;

Flowers in axillary few-flowered fascicles (up to ca. 7), subtended by normal leaves, or on smaller-leaved or spike like leafless axes;

Flowers bisexual, often in clusters of 2--4, sometimes solitary, small, subtended by a bract and a few bracteoles;

Female flowers subtended by a small, entire bract, adnate to bracteoles and virtually submerged in wing complex;

Flowers produced on short shoots, each flower subtended by a bract or bract suppressed;

glumes 2, lower glume close to lower lemma, without subtended buds;

Flowers often solitary, subtended by a scarious bract and enclosed at base by 2 short bracteoles;

Male flower subtended by small, linear bract, pedicellate;

glumes 1 or 2, both small, lower glume usually very small, usually distant from lower lemma, with vestigial remnants of subtended buds;

Flowers 1 or 2, axillary to basal leaf, sessile, subtended by 2 bracts;

Flowering branchlets spicate, ca. 5 cm, subtended by 4 or 5 scaly bracts gradually larger;
