nine divisions
(noun)
An alternate system for dividing the abdominopelvic cavity into regions.
Examples of nine divisions in the following topics:
-
Abdominopelvic Regions
- These divisions are often used to categorize the individual abdominal organs by their location and function and are used by clinicians to help diagnose the source of abdominal pain and determine appropriate treatment.
- The most common divisions for the abdominopelvic region are the four quadrants and nine regions.
- The nine divisions of the abdominopelvic region are smaller than the four quadrants, allowing for a more detailed discussion.
- These divisions are marked by two parasagittal and two transverse planes centered around the navel.
- The perineum (the area beneath the hypogastric region at the bottom of the pelvic cavity) is sometimes considered to be a tenth division in this system.

Comparing Plant and Animal Cells
- Each centriole is a cylinder of nine triplets of microtubules.
- However, the exact function of the centrioles in cell division isn't clear, because cells that have had the centrosome removed can still divide; and plant cells, which lack centrosomes, are capable of cell division.
