How can you use “elongated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
Results of the present studies show that treatment with resveratrol induces a morphologic change from a stellar to an elongated shape (Figure 1).
Inhibitors of intracellular [Ca 2+] and tyrosine kinase activity effectively reduced the percentage of elongated cells elicited by resveratrol.
In contrast, dark-grown seedlings undergo skotomorphogenesis (or etiolation), typified by elongated hypocotols and closed cotyledons [ 1 ] . COP1 was first identified through genetic screens as a negative regulator of light regulated development in Arabidopsis [ 2 ] . Arabidopsis cop1 mutant seedlings are constitutively photomorphogenic even when grown in the dark, and the severe cop1 mutants cause lethality in the late seedling stage, indicating that COP1 is essential for plant development [ 2 3 ] . Arabidopsis COP1 (Arabidopsis thaliana COP1, AtCOP1) is essential for the proteasome-dependent degradation of two transcription factors, HY5 and HYH [ 4 5 ] . These two homologous bZIP-type transcription factors directly interact with AtCOP1 and are capable of binding to light-responsive promoters to activate the transcription of many target genes [ 5 6 ] . Genome wide micro-array analysis shows that AtCOP1 regulates most, if not all, of the light-responsive genes under various light conditions [ 7 8 ] , substantiating the notion that AtCOP1 functions as a crucial developmental switch through targeting key transcription factors for degradation, thereby controlling the light-responsive gene expression and photomorphogenic development.
In contrast, in the elongated root epidermal cells where the nucleus usually elongates at the two opposite sides, we often detected multiple fluorescence spots (five spots for the root nucleus shown in Figure 7), which indicates the polyploid nature of the observed nuclei.
This results in two elongated clusters, stretching out along the main diagonal of a three-dimensional cube, with 100 observations each.
